Hyundai Motor Group is officially overhauling its digital cabin. Starting in 2027, Kia vehicles will begin featuring Pleos Connect—a brand-new, Android-based infotainment platform designed to power the next generation of software-defined electric vehicles.

In today’s episode, we break down what this major tech shift means for future EV owners:

• What is Pleos Connect and how does Android Automotive OS change the in-car experience? • Why Hyundai and Kia are keeping physical backup buttons alongside giant touchscreens. • Gleo AI: How context-aware voice assistance actually works on the road. • Scaling to 20 Million EVs: The plan for continuous over-the-air updates and a third-party app ecosystem.
