Winter, not so cold! Get out your smart phone

Imagine having to work at 5 a.m., it’s below 0 degrees outside, and you are dreaming for your car to be warm and toasty when you step in without having to go outside to start it. You constantly press the snooze button to get an extra few minutes, by the time you realize you’re almost late, you log onto your phone and tap on the BlueLink app, remotely start the car, adjust the temperatures, and off to the shower you go. By the time you're done getting ready, your car is ready for you too. No need to scrape off the ice or sit in the cold car waiting for actual heat to blow. Sweet! 

For some of us, that future is now as Tesla announced they have a self-driving car. Hyundai has a feature that is very convenient for us that we can use our smart phone or smart watch to launch the request through cloud and initiate it within the vehicle. Blue Link app lets you access your car from a distance including, startups by setting the timer and temperature we desire, locking and unlocking, locating, lights and horn. Another option that is very beneficial is voice control. Keep in mind that a 4-digit pin is required to complete the mission. A bonus - You can also connect Blue Link with Amazon Echo Alexa to activate these functions too. 

For the first couple months Hyundai will provide these services for complimentary. After that, if you wish to continue Hyundai Blue Link offers all of these features by choosing one the three plans that’s right for you.
