The Benefits of Kia’s Connect Services for the Modern Driver

Discover a world of benefits with Kia Connect, a comprehensive suite of seamlessly integrated services and features specifically designed to enhance your driving experience. Your Kia dealer explains how this embedded system improves connectivity, security, safety, and comfort.

Remotely Start Your Kia and Set the Cabin Temperature

Avoid getting into a sweltering hot car during the summer or sitting in a freezing cabin on a chilly winter morning. Kia Connect allows you to start your Kia’s engine and set the cabin temperature remotely.  

Enjoy Easy Navigation to Favorite Destinations

With My Points of Interest (POI), you can conveniently store all your favorite locations in one place, whether it’s a fantastic restaurant, an exciting roadside attraction, or a business address. Connected Routing, which offers real-time traffic data, improves your route and arrival time.  

Improve Your Driving Habits

Gain valuable insights into your driving behavior with the Driving Score feature. It keeps track of your average speed, highway speed, braking patterns, and potential risks associated with morning, evening, and night driving. Stay updated with daily score reports, and as you improve your driving skills, you might even qualify for lower insurance premiums.

Locate Your Kia and Remember to Feed the Parking Meter

Have you ever scrambled to feed a parking meter or wandered around a parking lot searching for your car? With the Parking Minder feature, you’ll get handy reminders when it’s time to top up the meter, and the Find My Car function will guide you to your Kia, no matter how vast the parking lot is.

Set Driving Thresholds

If your kids borrow your Kia occasionally, having an extra set of eyes and ears can keep them safe behind the wheel. My Car Zone enables you to set alert thresholds, so if the car is driven past a specific time, exceeds speed limits, or goes beyond specified boundaries, you’ll get an alert. 

Receive Real-Time Diagnostic Alerts

The Vehicle Diagnostics feature will alert you if your Kia has an issue. The feature allows you to act early, preventing problems from causing further damage to your Kia. 

Get Reliable Roadside Assistance and Emergency Response

If you ever find yourself in a tight spot, a simple button press is all it takes to get help. With the Roadside Assist feature, roadside assistance is notified immediately and, on their way, to ensure you get the help you need. During airbag deployment, Kia Connect instantly relays your location to a Kia agent, who will promptly contact 911 services.

Receive Assistance to Recover Your Stolen Vehicle

The Stolen Vehicle Recovery feature, part of the Kia Connect Ultimate Packages, provides an additional layer of safety and security. With this security feature, trained Kia agents collaborate with law enforcement to assist in recovering your stolen vehicle.
