The Many Features of Chevrolet MyLink
In-car technology has grown by leaps and bounds over the past decade or two, and this has manifested itself in a range of advanced navigation, communication and entertainment features, i.e. the 'infotainment' system. Auto manufacturers have been competing continuously to design more and more advanced infotainment systems. However, very few systems can compare with the range of high-tech features and connectivity that Chevrolet MyLink offer, and here is a brief overview of what drivers can expect from Chevrolet's outstanding infotainment system.
A World of Technology at Your Fingertips
Chevrolet says that MyLink enables drivers to take full control of their vehicle's technology, and this is no joke. In fact, MyLink actually allows you to integrate your smartphone directly into the infotainment system by plugging it into the built-in USB port. This enables you to make phone calls, send text messages, check your email and perform a number of other functions via the MyLink system instead of having to reach for your phone. With full compatibility for both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, both iPhone and Android users can access music, messages and a wide range of apps.
Chevrolet MyLink is also available with a built-in 4G LTE wireless network, which ensures you can stay connected anywhere you go. You can connect up to seven mobile devices to your in-car hotspot at any one time to ensure none of your passengers have to miss out on the fun.
Endless Opportunities for Entertainment
Chevrolet MyLink provides enough entertainment options to guarantee you'll never be bored on the road. Connect to Pandora Radio or Stitcher Smart Radio to instantly stream songs, radio stations and podcasts, or tune in to SiriusXM satellite radio to enjoy a huge range of commercial-free music, talk, news, sports and more. You can also play music directly from your smartphone or other mobile device by connecting it to the USB port.
Additional Assurance for Parents of Teen Drivers
Chevrolet MyLink also provides incredible benefits to parents of teen drivers. With its Teen Driver feature, parents can now see exactly how their child has been driving. This feature allows you to see a Teen Driver report card that shows you exactly how your teen drove and will also notify you if any of the vehicle's automatic safety features were engaged.
Parents can also program the Teen Driver feature to perform a range of other actions. For instance, you can pre-select maximum speed limits that you want your child to stay under, and the system will automatically provide both audio and visual alerts as soon as your child exceeds this speed. You can also set a maximum audio volume or program it so that the audio is automatically muted unless all passengers are wearing their seat belts.
Never Get Lost Again
Smartphone users have the option to access their phone's map and navigation functions by using Android Auto or Google CarPlay. However, you can also take advantage of the available OnStar Turn-by-Turn Navigation system. With this system, you can also use the MyChevrolet smartphone app to send driving directions from your phone directly to your MyLink.
Keep Your Hands on the Wheel and Your Eyes on the Road
Chevrolet MyLink has taken hands-free communication to a whole new level. Thanks to its integrated Siri Eyes Free function, Apple users can compose emails and text messages using voice commands and without having to take their hands off the wheel. Everyone knows just how dangerous texting and driving is, and the Siri Eyes Free feature ensures you won't have to pull over to compose that important message.
As you can see, Chevrolet MyLink brings with it outstanding in-car entertainment and connectivity. Still, you really need to try it out for yourself to understand exactly how much this system can do. This is why we'd like to invite you to stop by Miles Chevrolet to see MyLink in action for yourself.
