Android Auto: Creating A Connected Kia Soul

How Smart do you want your car to be? Google believes that the world is ready for the Smart Car!

It helps you to keep up with your vehicle’s maintenance, keep track of your vehicle with Parking Minder, get to where you are going with GPS Navigation, and enjoy the ride there with HD Radio and Digital Jukebox.

Android Auto has some similar features as UVO. However, the integration between the system and the phone are more seamless.
