New Hyundai & Kia models offer innovative Parrot connectivity solution for both mass-market customers and sports drivers

This comes as a result of continued collaboration between Parrot and the Hyundai Kia Automotive Group. Today, these new vehicles open new horizons for this collaboration as the Genesis Coupe tops the Hyundai range and the Kia Soul is a new reference in urban vehicles. Both models are aimed at the North American markets.

This user-friendly Bluetooth® hands-free solution is a premiere for Parrot OEM as it is the first to implement Parrot’s Speaker -Independent Voice Recognition solution. To place a hands-free phone call via Bluetooth, customers simply speak their contact’s name, with no need to record voice tags or browse their phonebooks.

This solution is available in three languages, English, French and Spanish.

"Parrot Automotive Connectivity implies best-in-class integration and easy-to-use features. With the implementation of Speaker-Independent Voice Recognition, Parrot enhances existing features such as Bluetooth telephony and media player functions for car entertainment in an all-in-one connectivity solution (CK5050+)" said Eric Riyahi, OEM Executive Director at Parrot.
