Apple CarPlay in 2018 Kias

Wednesday, 20 December, 2017

We carry our iPhones everywhere with us. They’re not only how we make calls on the go, but our digital and video cameras. They hold our important documents and are how we check email, surf social media pages and play games. So, why not inject that same technology into a car, but in a way that will make the drive safer so we’re not constantly glancing at our small screens when our eyes should be on the road? Kia has done just that with Apple CarPlay in its 2018 models.

With Kia’s UVO touchscreen display, you can easily make phone calls, access your favorite music and apps and send hands-free texts. With Siri voice control and predictive navigation, Apple CarPlay is the smarter way to use your phone while driving.

PHONE

Make a call or listen to a voicemail through your car without having to pick up your phone. Easily access your contacts and Siri from the UVO screen or steering wheel controls.

MESSAGES

Siri can dictate your response and read text messages aloud, making it easy for you to respond to messages while keeping your eyes on the road.

MAPS

The UVO display gives you all the features of the Apple Maps app. Enter or say an address for directions or find points of interest nearby. Based on the address in your iPhone, CarPlay can even predict where you want to go.

*MUSIC & APPS *

The apps on UVO’s CarPlay display look just like your phone, so listening to your favorite playlists, podcasts and audio books is as easy as tapping the screen. You’ll have access to your iTunes, Apple Music, Contacts and tons more third-party apps.

A few tips for Apple CarPlay
