BERLIN (Reuters) - Volkswagen said it would take over Volvo's WirelessCar, a Stockholm-based digital service developer, specialising in connected driving.

The deal, which still has to be approved by cartel authorities, would make VW a 75-percent shareholder in WirelessCar, the company said on Wednesday, without disclosing financial details.

The transaction is expected to close during the first half of 2019, it added.
