- Jun 07, 2016 I have Hyundai Tucson 2017 which was bought in the USA, but is currently used in Europe. Navi system has Android Auto - it works well. However, it is not very convenient to connect a USB phone every time I want to use navigation. Unfortunately, the original navi system does not have European maps, but only the US and Canada.
- Android Auto is your smart driving companion that helps you stay focused, connected, and entertained with the Google Assistant. With a simplified interface, large buttons, and powerful voice actions, Android Auto is designed to make it easier to use apps that you love from your phone while you’re on the road.
- Android Auto is a skin for your phone that's designed for easy use in the car, but it can also interface with car radios. Android Auto can do pretty much anything that an Android phone can do on its own; it's just tweaked and fine-tuned for an automotive setting.
