Hyundai Motor’s standalone luxury brand Genesis announced Sunday that it is offering an “over-the-air” software update for its GV60 model that was launched last October.
The software update will enhance the car’s advanced driver assistance system by improving forward and backward collision warnings, parking distance warnings, and remote smart parking assist features.
With GV60, drivers will be able to download the updated software “over-the-air” while driving, without having to visit a service center.
Over-the-air updates used to be offered for infotainment systems only.
The updated forward and backward collision warning uses ultrasonic wave sensors attached to the bumper and side mirrors of GV60 to detect much wider space and warns collision with pedestrians or objects in all directions of the vehicle during parking.
The updated parking distance warning feature detects even the sides of the vehicle to warn the driver about objects located on the side when moving forward and backward.
The updated remote parking assist utilizes image information of wide-angle cameras on top of the existing ultrasonic sensor detection information when auto parking.
Genesis said it would soon offer another over-the-air software update to allow drivers to open car doors by using their smartphones.
“Our customers will always be able to experience the latest car features and enhanced quality through such updates,” said an official from Genesis.
