Compatible vehicles for Apple CarPlay upgrade:

  • MY19 Corolla in all body styles and grades
  • MY19 and MY20 RAV4 all grades excluding Icon

This multimedia upgrade allows owners to access the services included in their mobile phone on the multimedia display screen and action them through voice activation or by manually prompting through the steering wheel controls or touchscreen itself. In this way they will be able to safely enjoy applications such as Google Maps, Spotify, Amazon Music, WhatsApp and Waze without the need to directly interact with their mobile phone.

    1. Hi Gemma, thanks for your comment.

      Apple CarPlay requires a wired connection in your RAV4. Have you ever managed to get it working?

      Thanks,

      1. Hi Keir, thanks for your question.

        This vehicle has wireless smartphone integration.

        Thanks.

  2. Is it possible to retro fit Apple CarPlay to a 2016 Rav 4 Icon? The Toyota map system can’t find my house and even towns like Seaton defeat it. It sees my phone book but often will not load contacts into maps. American YouTube videos suggest little problem.
