Genesis Connected Services is getting a lot more powerful with the introduction of the Genesis app for the Google Assistant. All Genesis vehicles are equipped with three years of complimentary Genesis Connected Services, which allows connectivity into the car with technologies like Remote Start with Climate Control, Destination Search powered by Google, Remote Door Lock/Unlock and Stolen Vehicle Recovery.

The Genesis app for the Google Assistant allows control of various functions of a Genesis vehicle with simple voice commands or smartphone keyboard inputs. To send commands to Genesis vehicles via the Google Assistant on Google Home or a smartphone, engineers developed a way to link a customer's Genesis Connected Services account with the Google Assistant voice activated services.

Once a customer has successfully linked his or her account, Remote Service commands can be sent to Genesis vehicles only after the Google Assistant prompts owners for their Connected Services Personal Identification Number.
