Genesis, Hyundai’s new luxury division, today said it will be the first company to allow users to control a variety of car functions remotely using Amazon Alexa voice commands.

An increasing number of automakers have smartphone connectivity to their vehicles. But the Genesis technology is new to the auto industry because it pulls in a third party -- Amazon -- allowing yet another means of connecting to and controlling a vehicle's functions.

Available on the Genesis G80 now and on the G90 when it goes on sale in several weeks, the setup will use Amazon’s wireless devices in the home -- the Amazon Echo, Echo Dot and Tap -- to do things like lock or unlock the car, turn on the vehicle and set the temperature or honk the horn.
