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.
I have ordered a brand new auris hybrid excel . could you tell me if this will come with touch 2? Thanks
Hi Benno
Thanks for your post.
Touch 2 is not currently available on the Auris hybrid.
Hello,
We recently (March 2014) took the delivery of a brand new Prius in France (even though it was reserved in November 2013). We had opted for the Touch & Go Plus option.
I would like to know if we could upgrade to Touch 2 in France? And how much could it cost?
Thanks.
Hi Puneet
Thanks for your post.
It is not possible to upgrade from Touch & Go to Touch 2 as these are different systems. Touch 2 is being introduced on new models or when there are significant specification changes. It is not yet available for the Prius.
I have a new 2014 Rav4 with Touch2 with Go – when can I upgradw to Touch 2 with Go Plus?
Hi Geoff
Thanks for your post.
The latest from our product team is that this should be available from our dealer network in approximately 2 months time.
Hope this helps.
Hi
I have a 5 day old Toyota Rav 4 and have brought it on holiday to France but having big problems with the sat Nav – basically – it knows the destination with a flag but routes most destinations to east of Poitiers (always the same place )
We took it into Toyota in La Chataigneraie who said the software needed updating but when we referred back to Ron Brooks in Ilkeston they said the software was up to date –
4.2.1L / 2014 v1
If you have a solution we would be really helpful for advice as we are heading south to the Pyrenees in 2 days and don’t know the area….
Hi Natalie,
Thanks for your post.
We have passed this by our technical team and it appears your software does require an update to version 4.2.2. Sorry for the confusion caused.
Your local Dealer will be happy to carry this out, although you may wish to update this yourself through the Customer Portal, this link will help you get there: http://po.st/cYxSm5
Do let us know if you have any further questions. Have a great holiday.
Hi, version 4.2.2 does not seem to be available in the portal. Is this a free update?
Hi Steve,
We have rechecked this with our technical team and apologies for any inconvenience caused but the latest update was in fact version 4.2.1. If you are facing issues with your Touch 2, we recommend visiting your local Dealer who will be happy to assist. You can find your nearest Dealer here: http://po.st/8Q5QfO.
Hope this helps.
Hi Natalie,
We have had some further feedback from our technical team on this. As an alternative option you could first plan your journey using Google maps on the Touch Portal and then send this route to the RAV4 via your mobile phone.
In order to do so you will need to:
– Register an account with MyToyota here: http://po.st/a9O6BL (Video: https://youtu.be/G56q6vDZZZE)
– Pair your phone with Touch 2 (Video: https://youtu.be/j2LWnZrCA8g)
– Map out your journey online and then sync it with Touch 2 via your mobile (Video: https://youtu.be/x6QwWc40waI)
We hope this helps and that you’re having a fantastic holiday.
I recently changed my 2006 Rav 4 for a new 2014 Rav 4 and I must say the new Toyota touch 2 with go sat nav is possibly one of the most confusing and inaccurate guidance systems I have ever come across. There is often not a good choice of routes and it does try to take one down some very silly roads, especially if you have a caravan with you. Please please give my back my old system which was reliable and really never took me along silly road. Not impressed ! And when will Touch 2 with go plus be available?
Hi Geoff,
Thanks for your post and sorry to hear you are having trouble with your Touch 2 with Go.
Have you tried changing the navigational settings? Such as: shortest route, quickest route etc. this may help resolve your issue.
We have no news as to when Touch 2 with Plus is expected, we’ll be sure to announce this through our blog as soon as we can.
Hope this helps and do let us know if your problem persists.
Tobi
Thanks for your reply.
Confusion I can get over with practice but I really do have an issue with accuracy.
I will have to keep trying ;(
Regards
Geoff
The problem thati have in the Rav4 is that the screen is very difficult to read when the sun shines in through the passenger window. I have also had occasional problems with the sun reflecting onto the screen and into my eyes. Is this a problem that other people have seen and is there an anti-reflection coating / film which can be applied?
Thanks
Steve
Hi Steve,
Thanks for your post and for pointing this out to us.
Unfortunately we do not currently sell such an anti-glare accessory, although we will be sure to pass your comments on to the relevant product team for future consideration.
Sorry we couldn’t be of further assistance.
Hello,
I am the owner of a 2014 Corolla with Touch-2 (multimedia without sat navigation) and even though I own a mirrorlink supported phone(Sony xperia Z) I cannot mirror my phone’s screen to. Touch-2 display.Phone’s mirrorlink services and applications are starting automatically upon connecting the phone via USB but still no mirrorlink option to Touch-2.
Is mirrorlink supported by all Touch-2 multimedia versions or only by Touch-2 with Go/Go plus?
Thank you in advance for your feedback
Best regards
George
Hi George,
Thanks for your post.
Having passed this by our technical team, we can confirm that unfortunately Touch 2 is not compatible with Sony MirrorLink phones.
Hope this helps.
Hello Toby,
first of all I would like to thank you for the prompt reply and your excellent support.
In order to take advantage of the Mirrorlink feature, can you please provide a compatible list with Mirrorlink capable phones that are currently supported by Touch-2? I am realy interested for mirrorlink feature and willing to purchase a smartphone able to connect with Toyota Touch-2.
In any case, it is quite strange the fact that even though Sony is a charter member of Car Connectivity Consortium (http://www.mirrorlink.com/member-list) as Toyota and Panasonic (manufacturer of Touch-2), and even though my phone is supporting Mirrorlink protocol (https://cert.mirrorlink.com/ProductListing/?MLID=SR130062) I cannot take advantage of this innovative feature.
Again thanks for the support!
Best regards
George
Hi George,
Having passed your query by our technical team, we can confirm the following phones are compatible with MirrorLink:
– Samsung Galaxy S3
– Samsung Galaxy Note 2
– Nokia 700
– Nokia 701
– Nokia 603
– Nokia 808
The following phones are compatible after being updated to Nokia Belle OS (Symbian OS 10.1 or later)
– Nokia N8
– Nokia E7
– Nokia C7
– Nokia X7
– Nokia C6-01
Hope this helps.
Dear Tobi,
I am the owner of Land Cruiser Prado with Toyota Touch 2, and Sony Xperia Z phone.
It is very disappointing that Toyota firmware apparently has a flaw, which does not allow it to be paired with Xperia phone, which supports Mirrorlink technology.
Would you please advice, if you plan to issue any fix for the firmware soon, which will enable the announced Mirrorlink functionality?
Thank you.
Serge
Hi Serge,
Thank you for taking the time to contact us.
Toyota Touch 2 uses a system which is compatible with Samsung and Nokia for mirror link. Unfortunately this system is different to the Sony system making the Xperia incompatible. Toyota Europe are looking in to this so we’ll keep you updated, but for the moment there isn’t a fix.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Hello Tobi,
thanks for the prompt response and the excellent support.
I am very interested on Mirrorlink feature so my question is whether you may provide a list of Mirrorlink supported phones compatible with Toyota Touch-2.
Thanks in advance
Best regards
George
Thanks again for the feedback
Hi, I have just got my new Prius 2014 T Spirit with the Toyota Touch & Go Plus, I have paired my Nokia mobile ok , the contacts in the Nokia have been transferred in the Touch & Go Plus but some of the contacts seems to be double entries ( same number showing twice in the T & G + contact) I am unable to delete any of the contacts, How do u delete them?
When I touch the icon next to the contact number there is no option to delete.
Franco
Hi Franco,
Thanks for getting in touch.
We suspect the Touch & Go system could be reading both the phone and the SIM card memory. We suggest setting your phone to use just one of the memories (either phone or SIM). Then update the phone book or delete the phone pairing from the Touch & Go and then re-pair the device.
Hope this helps!

Hi I am thinking about purchasing a Rav 4 with Toyota Touch installed. Is it possible to have the Satnav (as in the go bit of Touch and Go) retro fitted to this model in the future?
