Toyota‘s new 2020 lineup includes, for the first time, a variety of models that support both Apple CarPlay and Google’s Android Auto along with Amazon Alexa.
The new models include the 2020 4Runner, Sequoia, Tacoma, and Tundra. Last year’s Avalon supported CarPlay, but not Android Auto. The two technologies are comparable, letting the driver sync their phone to the car and display an interface on the dash touchscreen that’s driven by the phone, and includes voice control. The interfaces are tailored to driving, with a focus on navigation, music, and basic communication.
Other car companies already supporting both CarPlay and Android Auto are: Chrysler (and Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Ram), Ford (and Lincoln), GM (Buick, Cadillac, Chevy, GMC), Honda (and Acura), Hyundai (and Kia), Jaguar, Land Rover, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, VW (and Audi), and Volvo
