The 'Genesis Music' and 'Bloomberg App' are entering Genesis. The service is provided free of charge as part of a plan to expand Genesis-exclusive streaming content.
Starting on the 10th, the Genesis brand provides the 'Genesis Music' and 'Bloomberg App' services free of charge to Genesis vehicles equipped with the connected car integrated cockpit (ccIC) infotainment system through a wireless (OTA) software update.
The Bloomberg App is supported for all vehicle types, while Genesis Music is applicable to all models except for the G90 pre-2024 model, GV60 pre-facelift model, and GV70 electrified model. (※ The GV70 electrified model is expected to be supported in the second half of the year.)
Genesis owners can freely access new content through wireless software updates without the need to create a separate account or subscribe.
Genesis's in-house music streaming service, 'Genesis Music,' maximizes the audio performance of vehicles based on the Dolby Atmos spatial audio system, providing an immersive music listening experience.
Additionally, convenient UX setup and various playlists allow for easy music search and selection of recommended songs without smartphone connection, and there is no loss of audio quality when connecting via Bluetooth. Customers can enjoy unlimited streaming services of Genesis Music for free for up to five years with this update.
The 'Bloomberg App' is a service that provides three types of content from Bloomberg, a global news platform (Bloomberg TV+, Bloomberg Originals, news feed), in real time to the vehicle, with Genesis being the only automotive brand to exclusively support it.
Both Bloomberg TV+ and news feed menus provide translation functionality in five languages, including Korean, Chinese, German, French, and Arabic, allowing customers to access Bloomberg App's news, securities information, etc., without a login process until October 2026.
Additionally, Genesis offers a one-year subscription worth $299 to the Bloomberg service, allowing customers of G90, G80 (including electrified models), and GV80 (including coupe) to access Bloomberg content not only in their vehicles but also on personal devices like smartphones or tablets.
