Hyundai Motor Group's next-generation infotainment system, Pleos Connect, is set to add seven new apps, including the music streaming service Melon and the navigation service KakaoNavi.
Fortytwo Dot, Hyundai's software subsidiary, announced on September 7 that it has expanded the open app ecosystem, known as the app market, by adding these new applications.
With this update, the number of domestic apps available in the app market has increased from 11 to 18.
Fortytwo Dot focused on enhancing the app experience between mobile devices and vehicles, adding apps that are frequently used in cars, such as navigation and music streaming.
The company plans to continue expanding its app offerings in collaboration with domestic and international companies, aiming to include services in gaming, vehicle management, and lifestyle categories.
Currently, the app market is available in Hyundai Motor Group's domestic models equipped with Pleos Connect, such as the New Grandeur and the All-New Avante. As more models adopt Pleos Connect, the number of vehicles that can access the app market is expected to grow.
Meanwhile, Hyundai Motor Group aims to implement Pleos Connect as a core platform for software-defined vehicles (SDV), planning to apply it to approximately 20 million Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis vehicles by 2030.
