Owners of certain Hyundai models can now enjoy an exclusive FIFA World Cup theme on their vehicles’ display screens.

Hyundai Auto Canada has kicked off the feature just in time for FIFA World Cup 2026, which will be played out in Canada, the United States and Mexico June 11 to July 19.

In Canada, the in-vehicle display theme is available on the Palisade and Ioniq 9 sport utility vehicles. Adding the theme is free.

Hyunda is a partner of the FIFA World Cup, and the display theme is part of the automaker’s “Next Starts Now” campaign.

“With Canada set to host FIFA World Cup matches for the very first time, this initiative allows us to connect Canadians with the excitement of the tournament in a uniquely Hyundai way,” said Steve Flamand, president and CEO of Hyundai Auto Canada, in a news release.

“By bringing the spirit of the FIFA World Cup directly into the driving experience, we’re reinforcing our commitment to innovation while celebrating a defining cultural moment for fans across Canada.”

What is the World Cup theme?

Hyundai said the available display theme gives the driver’s display screen and the infotainment screen unique World Cup-inspired graphics.

Graphics include Atlas, which is Boston Dynamics’ humanoid robot, and Spot, a quadruped robot. They appear on the screens when powering the vehicles on or off, as well as on select navigation screens.

How do you add the display theme?

Owners of eligible Hyundai vehicles can download the display theme, free of charge, until Oct. 19.

Customers can download it from the Bluelink Store via the myHyundai application.
