(Relaxnews) - The South Korean manufacturer has brought its Blue Link mobile app to smartwatches, allowing users to start their vehicle's engine, lock the doors or turn on the AC remotely through the device on their wrist.

Hyundai owners will soon be able to communicate with their car from a distance thanks to the new Blue Link smartwatch app. Specifically, the app may be used to locate the car, stop or start the engine, lock or unlock the doors, control the AC or honk the horn -- all via touch screen or voice commands.

Compatible with Android Wear devices, the app will be available for download during the first quarter of 2015. All of the South Korean brand's models sold in North America are already compatible with the technology, although this is not the case in Europe.

Hyundai will demonstrate the new app at CES 2015, which opens on January 6 in Las Vegas.
