Kia Connect: Smart Technology for the Florida Summer

Your vehicle should be an extension of your digital life, offering convenience, security, and absolute comfort before you even step inside. With the Kia Connect infotainment and telematics system, your smartphone becomes an advanced remote command center for your vehicle.

As we approach the peak of the Florida summer, having a connected vehicle is no longer just a luxury—it is the ultimate defense against the extreme heat and humidity of Tallahassee.

Essential Features for the Florida Heat

The latest iteration of Kia Connect provides a suite of remote services designed specifically to improve your daily comfort and safety during the hottest months of the year.

Remote Start with Climate Control

Never step into a sweltering, sun-baked cabin again. Using the Kia Access app on your smartphone, you can remotely start your engine and activate the air conditioning system from the comfort of your home or office. By the time you reach your vehicle, the cabin temperature is perfectly cooled, the ventilated seats are activated, and your vehicle is ready for the road.

Find My Car

Whether you are navigating the massive parking structures at Florida State University or trying to locate your vehicle after a long day at St. George Island, the “Find My Car” feature eliminates the stress of searching. The app utilizes GPS to pinpoint your vehicle’s exact location on a map and can even sound the horn and flash the hazard lights to guide you straight to your door.

Next-Generation Connectivity

Beyond climate and location services, Kia Connect offers comprehensive control and diagnostics to ensure your vehicle is always secure and operating at peak efficiency:

• Remote Lock/Unlock: Secure your vehicle from anywhere, ensuring your valuables are safe even if you forgot to lock the doors.
• Vehicle Health Reports: Receive real-time diagnostic alerts and monthly maintenance reports directly to your phone, allowing you to seamlessly Schedule a Service Appointment before minor issues become major repairs.
• Stolen Vehicle Recovery: In the event of an emergency, Kia Connect can assist law enforcement in tracking and recovering your vehicle, providing an invaluable layer of security.
