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, how about CHR (reg:2019-Sep)? is it available to upgrade to apple car play now? It is impossible to pay 23 k for a car and not have car play, I am very disappointed!

      1. Hi Toyota

        I have recently purchased RAV4 PHEV GTR sports 74 plate. For some reason my Samsung S23 ultra doesn’t even load android auto. I have checked my phone and it has latest version of Android auto. Phone is connected to multimedia by Bluetooth but android auto doesn’t get setup. Any advise to fix this. Thanks

        You will need to connect via USB for Android Auto.

        Your RAV4 is not equipped with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto as standard, but it can be retrofitted. You will likely need to update the navigation system too, in order for the multimediata software to be compatible.
