Kia Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are HERE!




Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are the hottest things out there, when it comes to interfacing your smart phone to your car. But you bought a Kia and you don’t have those options…. But have no fear! Kia is offering free updates that will make it possible to have your phone work with your car!




 








Kia Motors America has just announce that multiple models of their vehicles are eligible for the update. Spanning the 2014 to 2017 models years of eight different vehicles can be updated.
Those models are:

  • 2017 Forte

In order to install the update, owners of new and preowned Kia models will first need to register at myuvo.com. At the end of July, Kia will send out emails to registered owners. This email will include vehicle eligibility info and system update download instructions. Once their updates are installed, iPhone users will be able to use Siri to dictate emails and more.
