Toyota Apple CarPlay and Android Auto upgrade

Toyota Apple Carplay

Toyota is pleased to announce that owners of Corolla and RAV4 models produced since *2019 now have the possibility of an upgrade to their Toyota Touch 2 multimedia system to include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mobile integration.

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.

The Apple CarPlay and Android Auto upgrade for compatible vehicles will be carried out by appointment at your local Toyota centre. Toyota recommends that owners arrange to have the upgrade installed during a scheduled service.

Please contact your centre for more information and to confirm compatibility.

* Depending on vehicle and specification, Toyota has installed its enhanced multimedia system as standard equipment since the 2020 model year. This means that vehicles with this system always feature Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality.

    1. Hi there, thanks for your comment.

      There is a cost incurred for the Apple Carplay retrofit, in line with the price increase on vehicles that were later equipped with the feature. Your local Toyota Centre is best placed to provide further information on the costs.

      Your Yaris is not compatible with the Apple CarPlay software, so retrofit is not available.

    2. Hi there,

      I own a RAV4 2019 in Ireland and brought it to my local Toyota Centre to do this upgrade as my car came without Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and I was told it wasn’t possible and I’d need to buy a new multimedia unit which would cost approx. €1000. Does it make any sense?

      1. Hi Victor,
        Unfortunately, we are unable to comment on non-UK specification vehicles.
        We apologise that we cannot assist you further with this.
        Thanks.
