South Korea's Hyundai has offered Google's Android Auto system in its Sonata model.
The system connects to the driver's smartphone and allows them to access apps like Google Maps by voice, steering wheel controls or a touchscreen on the dashboard, BBC reports.
Android smartphone users with a 2015 Sonata sedan can now ask car dealers to download the system for free if they have a vehicle with navigation.
This is the first time a carmaker will do such.
In January last year, Google had announced it was working with automakers including Hyundai, Audi and Honda to integrate the system in to their dashboards.
The tech giant said the system would be offered in 28 different brands by the 2016 model year.
Apple, its main rival, had also signed similar deals with BMW, GM and Honda.
