Samsung to partner with Hyundai, Kia for making cars ‘smarter’: All the details

Samsung partners with Hyundai Motor Group to expand its SmartThings platform for connected cars, including EVs. The collaboration aims to develop ‘Home-to-Car’ and ‘Car-to-Home’ services, as well as an integrated home energy management service. Through the SmartThings platform, users can remotely control their cars from home, including starting them, controlling air conditioning, and checking charging status.

In turn, users can also control home appliances such as TVs, air conditioners, and EV chargers from their cars. The partnership aims to enhance the customer experience in both the home and the car. Samsung has announced that it will partner with Hyundai Motor Group to expand its SmartThings platform to support connected cars, including electric vehicles (EVs).

The two companies will work together for the next-generation smart home to connect Samsung’s SmartThings with Hyundai and Kia ’s connected cars, including EVs, to develop the “Home-to-Car” and “Car-to-Home” services as well as an integrated home energy management service, said Samsung in a press release. The Home-to-Car and Car-to-Home services connect the smart home with in-vehicle infotainment systems, allowing for remote control in both directions. Through the SmartThings platform, users will be able to perform a variety of actions on their cars while at home — starting them, controlling smart air conditioning, opening and closing windows and checking their charging status.

And from cars, the control of home appliances such as TVs, air conditioners and EV chargers will also be possible. “This collaboration will enable communication from Home-to-Car and integrated home energy management services that are optimized for future lifestyles,” said Chanwoo Park, Executive Vice President at Samsung Electronics. “By connecting the SmartThings platform with vehicles, we’ll be able to significantly enhance the customer experience in both the home and the car.

” Users will be able to adjust their environments with SmartThings by simultaneously operating multiple devices — including vehicles — through routines such as “good morning routine” and “arriving home routine. ” For example, when a Galaxy smartphone’s morning alarm goes off, the curtains will automatically open, and the lights and television will turn on. When users are ready to go out for work, the user’s car will adjust itself to an ideal temperature.

Also, the smartphone and TV screens will display information such as the EV’s remaining battery and driving range. “This is an opportunity to make the connected car’s Car-to-Home and Home-to-Car services more convenient in various fields,” said Haeyoung Kwon, Vice President of Hyundai and Kia’s Infotainment Development Center. “We plan to accelerate our technology development to continuously make global Hyundai and Kia customers’ journeys meaningful.
