Kia India on Thursday announced its collaboration with MapMyIndia to offer high-tech and smart navigation solutions to its customers nationwide.
Integrated with My Kia and Kia Connect platforms, this strategic collaboration redefines the driving experience for users with accurate location services and a comprehensive place search function empowering users to confidently navigate their journeys, the company said in a statement.
The platform’s 4-wheeler-specific Points of Interest (POIs) search, spanning over 450 categories, enables easy discovery of vital services like dealerships and service centers, fuel stations, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, and more.
Moreover, drivers will enjoy speed limit alerts, real-time incident updates (e.g., water logging, road works, traffic jams), and voice-guided navigation support while driving.
These features, complemented by dynamic real-time safety alerts reaffirm Kia’s dedication to customer safety and delivering a tech-enabled enhanced driving experience.

Our collaboration with MapMyIndia strengthens our positioning as a tech-forward brand dedicated to providing disruptive experiences to our new-age customers.”
