Not content to let OnStar have the market to itself, Hyundai has developed its own multifaceted telematics system called Blue Link. The service will ape pretty much all of the capabilities of OnStar (stolen vehicle tracking, turn-by-turn directions, remote door unlock, etc.), while also boasting some unique ones like “geofencing,” where a text message will be sent to the owner notifying if the vehicle has left or entered a certain area (Rebellious teens and unfaithful spouses, consider this your warning.). Look for Blue Link to show up as an option on the Sonata and a “youth oriented model” (Read: Veloster) at first, with availability on every Hyundai coming for the 2013 model year.
