So is Canada included? I haven't received any emails regarding this so I have no idea.

 

[RedCal]

Yes, (free download ) for us

I went to the site, put in my VIN and it says it added it to my cart. Where the hell is the cart?
No tab or button for said cart in my account.....maybe they wont accept until the 27th?
The new website is a shitshow....


This is what they sent me back. I guess you cant order until the 27th.

I have it in the shopping cart and a little shopping cart appears in the upper right.

------------------
i certainly hope the product they deliver is better than this web site-- you're absolutely right it's a shitshow for sure. One would think they could add a simple popup to tell folks that an order can not be placed until the stated date. I have little confidence V14 will be ready by the 27th; I do hope I'm wrong.

I truly like my GT2 a lot-- but so far that is the ONLY thing (albeit the most important thing) I've like about my first Kia experience. Years ago I did purchase a new Sonata YF-- dealer sales, service, Apps, connectivity were ALL superior to my Kia experience. (I do like the GT2 much better though.)

How do you get a shopping cart icon? I get the message "you have already added this to your cart", but I don't see any cart icon..

 

[Kodiack]

Same message I get, the chat indicates the cart will be active come the 27th.
Maybe rdromance is using the old website?

After selecting all my options and clicking search, nothing comes up. Maybe I have to wait at least to the 27th.

I wonder what this from the release notes/FAQ means. Do we actually have LTE equipment in the car?:

What is Server-Based Routing?
Server-Based Routing or Connected Routing is a more precise, more accurate method to providing the best routing available when a driver inputs an address. When routing to an address is requested by the driver, the route is calculated in the cloud through the vehicle’s LTE connection, rather than calculating the route on-board the vehicle.

That's very confusing and there doesn't seem to be an clear answers. In a related note, I was also looking up wireless android auto, since according to google's site, the 2018-20 Stingers support it and I have a galaxy S9+ on android 10 which also supports it but I can't get it to work, despite Kia's site saying the Stinger comes with Kia Connected Services which has wifi built it.

It wouldn't apply to usdm Stingers as we do not have LTE built in.

Looks like V13.5 to V14 is the single biggest update to date.
So many new features.

What site says your car supports wireless android auto?
Additionally, what site says Canadian stingers have WiFi?

Mine has LTE connected services... but no WiFi

 

[Sushi]

What site says your car supports wireless android auto?

This one. Android Auto | Android

 

[D.J.]

This one. Android Auto | Android

From that site
I only saw this - no list?

 

[MrSmoofy]

No it doesn't only cars with an * next to them do go read again.

There is no wireless Android Auto in stingers.

 

[Sushi]

My bad. I read some articles and they had a list of cars that support android auto and were talking about wireless but I guess they weren't clear that the two aren't synonymous with each other. Guess I've been misunderstanding this whole time.

7 new useless features, I see nothing there worth upgrading. The maps will still be outdated and Google Maps or Waze will always be a better option.

What, you are not impressed by addition of "Sounds of Nature"?
