Toyota Touch 2
The Toyota Touch 2 system is the latest generation of our basic multimedia system and features some important upgrades.
At the core of improvements are redesigned screens with a deeper, 3D effect for graphics. Image resolution has been improved too, meaning the screen is brighter and images are sharper.
On-screen menus have been redesigned to incorporate key vehicle information including fuel economy and DAB radio function (where available). What’s more, the screen now supports ‘drag and flick’ control for easy, intuitive operation.

Toyota Touch 2 with Go
The Toyota Touch 2 with Go system takes all of the basic function of the Touch 2 device and adds a versatile and detailed satellite navigation system.
As well as offering simple-to-use navigation functions, the system also allows users to tailor the information on offer, to include customisable speed limits, speed camera warnings, automatic zoom, motorway signposting and motorway junction views. The map zoom function is controlled by a simple rotary button at the side of the device.
Advanced traffic coverage, now located on the map itself, takes the form of a ‘traffic bar’ showing the driver any congestion ahead, and how long a delay to expect.
Via the Toyota Online function, the system offers on-board connectivity to an expanded range of services including Toyota Real-Time Traffic powered by TomTom, Google Street View and Panoramio, and Google Local Search –the largest and most up-to-date search database in the world.
The MyToyota customer portal also allows users to plan their journeys online. Destinations can be input remotely from home or office via Google Maps, and Points of Interest (POI) may be downloaded for entry as destinations.
Toyota Online content includes a Touch 2 with Go Apps function which offers several applications, including fuel prices, weather and parking space information.

Toyota Touch 2 with Go Plus
When upgraded to Touch 2 with Go Plus, the touch-screen multimedia system comes equipped with 3D city models, landmark graphics and a ‘text-to-speech’ message readout facility.
The system will display emails and calendars depending on Bluetooth mobile phone compatibility. It also features a ‘Play More like This’ function. This smart music recognition system can automatically provide playlist recommendations to suit your mood; a safe and easy way to manage music on the move.
Touch 2 with Go Plus supports Wi-Fi connectivity. Users set up their smartphones as a Wi-Fi hotspot for connection to the system’s online functions.
Is it possible to browse my Iphones music library through bluetooth? Or just the usual Pause/Play/Next/Previous controls?
And will it show Albumcovers over Bluetooth?
Hi Nozuka
Thanks for your post.
We have checked this with our technical team and it is not possible to browse libraries or view album artwork via bluetooth, only via the USB cable.
Hope this helps
Thank you for your reply, but i see updates only for the maps of the touchNgo.
For the simple version of touch2 without the navigation, there is no update ?
Hi George,
Thanks for your post. There may be an update available for Touch 2 if there is an issue with your current Touch 2 system. In order to solve your issue, we would suggest contacting your local dealer, they will be able to assist further! Many thanks.
My Toyota Yaris Icon Hybrid is a 2015 model fitted with touch 2, It doesnt show the DAB Screen, should it? Also the multimedia system in the car is currently under investigation by my local Toyota dealer as the steering wheel mode button is not working correctly with the multimedia system. They are currently waiting for an answer of how to proceed from Toyota and have been since January. Could you chase this please?
Hi David,
Thanks for getting in touch and we are sorry to hear that you are experiencing these issues. We would advise for you to contact our Customer Relations Team, as they will be able to investigate this further for you. You can find their contact details via the following link:

Thanks.
I have a 2014 Rav4 with touch 2 with Go – when is touch 2 with 2 Go Plus going to be available for my car – I am told it is not available at the moment!
Hi Geoff
Thanks for your post.
Have just checked with our product team and Touch 2 with Go Plus is on the way and will be available for your RAV4 from April onwards.
Hope this helps.
Will the touch 2 and go plus be made available on the yaris range?
Hi Alan
Thanks for your post.
We are looking to introduce Touch 2 to the Yaris range but it will be later this year, timing is still to be confirmed but likely around autumn time.
Hope this helps.
Ok David. Thank you for the info regarding touch 2
If I purchase a 2011 / 2012 current shape yaris (which I am looking to do) can I have DAB functionality enable on the existing Touch 1 system?
Also, it does not currently have touch & go, can I have the ‘go’ part also enabled?
Finally, if it DOES have the go functionality, can I get map updates for it?
Thank you
Alan
I have a recently purchased a March 2013 UK spec Toyota Hilux Invincible 3.0 D4D DCB with rear reverse camera that does not have a Sat Nav system fitted. The unit fitted has a button for Sat Nav which displays item not fitted or similar when pressed.
Could you advise please if the unit can be upgraded / replaced to include a Sat Nav system such as the Touch 2 go system you describe here.
Hi John
Thanks for your post.
The system fitted to your Toyota Hilux is called Toyota Touch, you can upgrade to include satnav and this is called Toyota Touch & Go. I am attaching a link to our website which will explain more about the differences between the two systems.
http://www.toyota.co.uk/owners-info/touch-and-go.
Your local Toyota dealer will be able to explain more about the upgrade and the cost involved. Just to clarify one point though, Toyota Touch & Go cannot be upgraded to Toyota Touch 2 as they are different systems with different screens.
Hope this helps.

Hello Alan
Thank you for your post.
DAB is available for the Yaris and more details can be found here via this link. http://www.toyota.co.uk/new-cars/yaris-accessories
However just to be on the safe side we would recommend just double checking this with your local dealer that this does apply to the model you are looking at. You will need to let them know either the registration or VIN number. You can also upgrade the system from Toyota Touch to Touch & Go (which effectively adds satnav). This link will help with more information. http://www.toyota.co.uk/owners-info/touch-and-go
Finally, depending on what system you decide purchase, (free map upgrades for three years are available on Touch & Go Plus) you can purchase map upgrades via my.toyota.co.uk (using the link to my.toyota.eu).
Hope this helps for now but please let us know if you have any other questions.
Good evening David
Thank you very much for the advice on the Hilux Satnav, I will have a word with my local dealer.
Thank you again
Kind regards
John Heard
Hello,
Is there a way to duplicate my mobile phone screen on the screen of the Touch 2 ? Here you can see an example of this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gk1REXMeGw
I have a Corolla 2014.
Greetings from Belgium
Hi Kappen
Thanks for your post and greetings from the UK.
We have run this query past our technical team. Mirror link is available with Toyota Touch 2 but you will need a compatible phone which may require an App downloaded. You will need to check further regarding this as we are not aware of the compatible phone list. Instructions on connection to Toyota Touch 2 and how to “start up” the function are available in the owners manual.
Hope this helps.
Hello,
Thank you for your answer. I did some research on the internet and unfortunately, my LG Nexus 5 does not support MirrorLink 🙁
Greetings
Thanks for your reply Kappen.
Sorry to hear.
Is it possible to fit the Touch 2 in non-Toyota vehicles? I realize that some functions won’t be supported in other cars, but I’m looking for a radio with excellent FM reception, RDS, alternate frequency tuning, AUX & USB inputs, Bluetooth connectivity, convenient scrolling through MP3 files, and two real knobs (way more convenient than buttons IMHO). I can’t find any aftermarket models that fit my needs, but the Touch 2 looks like it does. Now I just need to figure out if it’s possible to mount it in my car without doing major surgery, and how to get one.
Thanks
Hi YossiD
Thanks for your post.
Have run this past our technical team but we would not recommend this. The screens are all factory fitted so we would not be able to provide any advice on fitting this to vehicles outside the Toyota range. We would suggest purchasing an after market system in these circumstances.
Sorry that we are unable to help further but thanks for your enquiry.
Hi, I have just taken delivery of a 2014 Rav4 with touch 2 & go. I can connect ok to the internet but cannot get any traffic information from the TomTom service. Is this service active yet?
Thanks
Steve
Hi Steve
Thanks for your post and we have run this query past our technical team.
They have double checked this on another vehicle and were able to connect ok. They have suggested checking whether the traffic system has been turned off in the settings menu? Another point was to check whether you are logged into your Tom Tom account and make sure that this service has been activated.
Hope this helps for now but let us know how you get on.
Hi, excuse my ignorance here but I was under the impression that the first years live service was provided free of charge. Am I wrong in assuming this, or do I need a code of some sort to activate. The manual is for the 2013 version so no details
Thanks, Steve
