No . Here is the map site . https://mapnsoft.com/kia/en_kia/customer/account/login/

 

I’m referring to the new CCNC that the Ionic Guy got a copy of in his video. Completely updated Navigation.

Hope 2022 EV6 will be include, looks completely better then the current navigation that most people don’t like.

 

You would need to buy a 2025 for ccNC otherwise, 2022 to 2024 Have the gen5W system.

 

I think Kia developed gen5W with the expired patent from Pong...

 

I don't think taking a huge hit in the pocket is worth it for the better nav system (that nobody should be using anyway since Waze is better) and the ugly look of the 25/26.

 

I'm always amazed that anyone uses the Kia nav for any purpose beyond pre-conditioning.

it's absolute garbage

 

just to reiterate any of my previous posts on this site, YES MY 2022 NAV SUCKS

 

With the navigation updates practically being non-existent, the app is getting more and more outdated as time goes on. This in turn makes enabling pre-conditioning more difficult. My hope is that they will simply push one last update to give us a pre-conditioning button but no more map updates, and everyone will just settle on Google/Apple maps.

 

I wouldn't put it past Kia in seeing them do this--they'll make the manual battery preconditioning function available in the next Gen5W nav/infotainment update but it can be activated in the menu only if you are subscribed to one of the paid Kia Connect plans. Think it sounds farfetched? Kia already does something like this with the Red Light Camera menu setting--you can view it in the infotainment menu but you can't access any of its settings unless you are subscribed to one of the paid Kia Connect plans.

 

I do not think that the app itself is so bad. Not Google Maps but as OME navigation goes not bad. What bothers me is that you cannot use a simple voice command to find an address unless you have the most expensive Kia Connect subscription. You can use commands based on name like "go home" or "go to work" if you have those stored but if you want to go to a new address you have to enter it. On my old Hyundai 2013 Elantra I could use voice commands, same on my Mazda 6 without paying $200 a year. If I am wrong on this please correct me

 

Yes, it gets dumbed down if you don't pay.

 

I was told the same thing after I bought the car... kinda pisses me off seeing as a huge selling point was seeing the directions on my heads-up display. now I'm in areas that have been around since 2019 and it just shows an empty map like I'm in a desert... fuckin dumb
