Hyundai Launches Snoopy and Charlie Brown Display Themes... "Available on ccNC Vehicles"
Collaboration with Global Content Company "Peanuts"
Gradual Expansion of Compatible Vehicles via Over-the-Air Updates
Globally popular cartoon characters Snoopy and Charlie Brown will now appear on Hyundai Motor Company displays, including those in the Santa Fe, Tucson, and Palisade models.
Hyundai Motor Company announced on May 19 that it has collaborated with global content company Peanuts Worldwide (Peanuts) to launch three new display themes in Korea: ▲Snoopy Universe ▲Charlie Brown and Friends ▲Road Trip.
"Peanuts," featuring Snoopy and Charlie Brown, is a popular American comic strip created by cartoonist Charles M. Schulz, which was serialized from October 1950 to February 2000. It began as a four-panel comic published in seven newspapers, including The Washington Post, and later expanded into TV series and theatrical films. In 2000, the year Schulz passed away, it had been translated into 21 languages and published in 75 countries worldwide.
Hyundai Motor Company first introduced the Peanuts display themes in the United States in December of last year, and the same themes are now available in Korea during the first half of this year (January to June). The company expects to deliver a more enjoyable and unique user experience to customers by featuring these familiar characters.
With these new themes applied, Snoopy and Charlie Brown will appear on the ccNC, which consists of two 12.3-inch displays. When starting up or shutting down the vehicle, users will see a short animation; when using audio, video, or navigation (AVN) functions, various Peanuts characters will be displayed as cards.
The models compatible with the Peanuts display themes are: ▲The All-New Santa Fe ▲The New Tucson ▲The All-New Palisade ▲IONIQ 9 ▲2026 Sonata The Edge ▲The New IONIQ 6.
Hyundai Motor Company plans to expand the range of vehicle models eligible for Peanuts display theme subscriptions via over-the-air (OTA) updates in the future. Any model equipped with ccNC will be supported.
