Certainly! The 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe will include Apple CarPlay as a standard feature on all trims, meaning there's no need for an additional update or upgrade to access it. Hyundai had been providing updates for older vehicle models to use this service, but in 2018, they focused on incorporating it into numerous new models. To use Apple CarPlay in these new models, drivers can connect their iOS device through the navigation system. This allows them to enjoy streaming music from their iTunes library, access Apple Maps, and utilize a variety of other services familiar to iOS users.
Even though most 2018 Hyundai models include Apple CarPlay, the 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe does not offer this feature. However, the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe lineup, including the SE, SEL, SEL Plus, Limited, and Limited 2.0T, all come equipped with Apple CarPlay on a 7-inch touchscreen display. The Santa Fe Ultimate and Ultimate 2.0T models offer an 8-inch touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay. Additionally, all models except the SE include Sirius satellite radio.
