Hyundai has launched its Bluelink+ connected car service program. It will be offered first in the new Hyundai IONIQ 6 and carried on to other future models later on.
Bluelink+ is launching with the new 2023 IONIQ 6 and on all future Bluelink-equipped Hyundai models starting with the 2024 model line-up. By standardizing access to top safety, maintenance, and remote technology features, Hyundai is offering a complimentary connectivity program for all new owners. All services included in the previous Bluelink Connected Care, Remote and Guidance subscription packages are now offered complimentary on a non-trial basis for new buyers with Bluelink+ (4G LTE network and technology dependent).
Hyundai is providing all these features to new car purchasers with no “trial period” or recurring subscription fees. Bluelink+ is a complimentary connected car program. With this program Hyundai is providing its customers more than $350 in estimated annual savings.
“Bluelink+ is part of our commitment to being a technology leader,” said Manish Mehrotra, vice president, digital business planning and connected operations, Hyundai Motor North America. “Other automakers follow a traditional subscription model and have monthly fees for most of these safety and convenience features. Hyundai is once again leading the industry by standardizing technologies that enhance the customer experience.”
Bluelink+ Features
All Bluelink+ services are offered complimentary with the purchase of a new Hyundai vehicle, the first year of ownership for certified pre-owned, and the first three months for used car owners. Key safety and maintenance features, previously included in the Connected Care Package, are now part of Bluelink+ Basic, which will be available for subsequent owners to connect with no associated fees. That means essential key safety and maintenance features, such as, Auto Collision Assistance, SOS Assistance, Remote Diagnostics, Maintenance Reminders, and over-the-air ECU Updates, are available with no trial period, and for the life of the supporting technology and 4G LTE network.
