Kia announced this Monday the launch of the brand’s premium automotive streaming service in Europe. The new service, which was debuted in the EV3, is now being extended to the new Sportage, EV4, EV5, and all upcoming models from the brand.
Available with the optional entertainment package, this new service reinvents the in-vehicle experience, transforming Kia models into sophisticated multimedia environments.
However, please note that the service is only available with the vehicle parked, and video streaming allows occupants to transform the vehicle into a private cinema.
Kia also announced that the higher levels of the entertainment package are powered by LG’s webOS-based automotive content platform, allowing users to stream, connect, and interact with a wide variety of content and applications.
Thus, the new entertainment package includes access to popular streaming apps and content services such as: Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, LG Channels, as well as news and entertainment applications like Haystack News, Stingray Karaoke, Play.Works, and for the younger ones, Baby Shark World.
Kia also announced that new content and additional services will be made available later this year, with ongoing expansion planned to further enrich the user experience.
The service also allows users to take advantage of the enhanced audio system through music streaming services, unlocking high-quality audio along with video content.
