Abstract: A method for transmitting a text message includes receiving, by a mobile communicator, the text message from an external terminal. Whether a vehicle is being driven is determined by a controller based on vehicle information including vehicle speed information. Whether a user of the external terminal is included in a first reply group is determined by the controller when the vehicle is being driven. Whether the user of the external terminal is included in a second reply group is determined by the controller when the user of the external terminal is included in the first reply group. A fixed response message is transmitted to the external terminal by the controller when the user of the external terminal is not included in the second reply group.

Abstract: A driving mode recommendation method stores driving mode information in a database for each customer and recommends a driving mode based on customer characteristic and environment analysis information. The method includes receiving a starting point and a destination from a terminal of a corresponding customer vehicle by a server. A route from the starting point to the destination is divided into sections according to a road type and a road form. It is determined whether the driving mode information is stored in the database for the divided sections. The stored driving mode information is generated as recommendation mode information for a section where the driving mode information is stored in the database by the server. Average value information of a general customer is generated as the recommendation mode information for a section where the driving mode information is not stored in the database.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for detecting a decline of fuel efficiency performance of a vehicle are provided. The method includes setting, by a controller, a fuel efficiency measuring reference mode and measuring average fuel efficiency based on data for each item based on the fuel efficiency measuring reference mode. Whether the fuel efficiency performance is declined is determined based on the average fuel efficiency measured value. A controlling apparatus that causes the decline of fuel efficiency is determined using data of the decline of fuel efficiency performance. In addition, a notification is output that provides the controlling apparatus causing the decline of fuel efficiency performance.

Abstract: A system for informing a function of a vehicle includes a plurality of electronic control units (ECUs) to control a corresponding function. A telematics multimedia system center (TMS) terminal receives signal values and state changed values input/output to/from the ECUs and transmits the received signal values and state changed values to outside.
