Abstract
A method of determining the own-vehicle position of a motor vehicle having a navigation system fixedly installed in the motor vehicle includes the steps of: providing a mobile terminal having the suitability for self-localization; providing an interface for the communication-related link-up of the mobile terminal to the motor vehicle; determining the own-terminal position of the mobile terminal by self-localization; transmitting the own-terminal position by way of the interface to the motor vehicle; and taking into account the transmitted own-terminal position when determining the own-vehicle position.
