Hyundai is going to equip every Equus luxury car, on sale next month, with a 16-gigabyte, Wi-Fi-enabled iPad. Owners will get it when they return to the dealer where they bought the car for a "reconnect visit," a chance to ask more questions about the car after they've lived with it for a few dayThe iPad is increasingly finding its way into cars. BMW, for instance, has created a docking station on the back of front seats of its X3 crossover so an iPad can be used as the rear-seat entertainment system.
Including an iPad with an Equus is considered such a big deal that Hyundai plans to feature it in its Equus ads. Hyundai plans to create similar owners-manual apps for its other vehicles, although not with an iPad as part of the deal. "We're very excited about it," says John Krafcik, CEO of Hyundai Motor America.
