Hyundai Motor is offering smartphone users the chance to experience the speed and excitement of being a part of Hyundai Shell World Rally Team, thanks to a new virtual reality application, Hyundai VR+.
The free-to-download application, available either from the Apple App store or Google Play, offers smartphone users an immersive insight into the world of Hyundai Shell World Rally Team. The application is available to download from today, with the first round of the 2015 FIA World Rally Championship starting on January 22 in Monte Carlo.
Features include a Virtual Reality (VR+) or 360-degree panoramic view play function from the co-driver seat of the Hyundai Shell World Rally Team driver, Dani Sordo. This application can be best enjoyed using a google cardboard or any commercial VR dive device in the market.
Gyoo Heon Choi, president of Hyundai Motorsport commented: “We hope through this ‘Hyundai VR+’ App that anyone can enjoy a thrilling i20 WRC in-car ride, all through a conventional smartphone. More VR contents are soon to be uploaded and Hyundai Motorsport rally fans will be able to enjoy even more in the future.”
The Hyundai VR+ application is available to download from the Apple App store (requires iPhone5 or higher) and Google Play (Android v4.1 or higher). Language support is in English.
