share information while driving and
make it easier to access Google. The
interface is equipped with Google
Maps with voice guided navigation,
traffic information in real time,
on-demand access to millions of songs
in Google Play Music. It also offers the possibility to make phone calls or send
and receive messages without taking
your hands off the steering wheel.
You can also request Google to make
any type of research. Android Auto
will give an easier access to
applications and content from the
MTC+ system display.
