This past spring, Kia launched a neat feature for basketball lovers! Now, 2024 Kia EV9 drivers can spruce up their car’s digital cluster display with the colors and logo of their favorite NBA team. Don’t own an EV9? Not to worry! Other vehicles with Kia’s latest Connected Car Navigation Cockpit system will get this feature, too. It’s a fun way for fans to show their team pride on the road.
“As avid basketball enthusiasts, we’re thrilled to introduce our latest available OTA update, which combines the thrill of the NBA with the opportunity to personalize your Kia vehicle,” said COO and EVP of Kia America, Steven Center.

This is a great way for fans to demonstrate their team spirit.
“This is just the tip-off, as we’re committed to enhancing the ownership and driving experience with more exciting themes, collaborations, and digital features to be introduced in the future.”
