Another feature I’d like is the ability to plug a usb stick in to one of the ports and be able to use the front camera as a dashcam. This feature is available on the Tucson in some other areas, so I presume it will be available on the Sportage in some areas. I have an OBD11 for my VW Golf which opens up lots of “hidden” features. I don’t know if there is an equivalent for KIA, but if there is, I’m sure this is something that can be unlocked.
Yes @gliders I would of liked to have done that but its only available in Korea from what ive read. It also uses an additional dedicated sd/usb port (can’t remember which one) which we don’t get.
Yes the VAG group was great for enabling extra features via the the OBD port. Unfortunately from what I can see when I had a quick look the other day Hyundai/Kia next to nothing could be done. Whether or not that was because I was using OBD11 i don’t know but will be looking more in depth into it when I get more time.
The EU cars that get extra goodies are there to compensate for putting the steering wheel on the wrong side
LOL. It wouldn’t surprise me if they took features off for putting the steering wheel on the right to punish us for being in a minority market 🙂
