Don't lose time on your updates

When it comes to update your software of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) or infotainment and navigation, Genesis makes time-consuming service appointment a thing of the past.

Wireless software updates

If your Genesis has a software update pending, the new version is downloaded wirelessly as you drive. Once download is completed, your Genesis will inform you about the update starting via the display screen in the vehicle before executing. Depending on the type of OTA software update services, the updating can be done either during the drive or after the ignition is switched off.

You can maintain and manage your Genesis with the latest software without visiting a Genesis Operating Centre or doing it manually.
