Interesting news that Toyota /Lexus will be incorporating this technology in their cars. Big step forward in the infotainment game.....

Having installed android auto in my car, it completely revolutionises the media, maps etc. In my opinion this is great news.

Didn't see that, more nice features that we won't see this side of the pond.

Probably because US is a bigger market and also because we don't get the enform system here. I believe the amazon Alexa is only available on vehicles with the Enform 2.0 system, so everything LC onwards including vehicles that have been facelifted since then

You could have it now, stick an Alexa dot to your dash and connect with output Bluetooth and hotspot.to your phone. I think.

You think right.

There's also a range of Logitech in-car phone holders that link to your Alexa account.
