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.
Hi John,
Thank you for your post. We have the figure listed in our technical specs as 6.1 inch in the 2011-2015 Avensis. However this figure may not be as precise as you need and with have no further detail. Hope this helps a little further and if you have any other questions please let us know.
I have an Auris Hybrid and with Touch 2 with Go.
I am having problems accessing music via USB. Have checked the formatting, bit rates, directories etc, and all conform to what is stated in the manual, but the memory stick is not recognised.
On first contacting my dealer, a mechanic tried to access music on his iPhone, my USB memory stick and my Samsung phone via USB but it did not recognise any of them. Car left with dealer for investigation and after 24 hours I was advised that it seemed to be working with other USB memory sticks and they were at a loss as to how to solve the problem.
I have 2 questions.
1. Does Touch 2 with Go recognise USB 3. (In the video on Toyota site its says it must be USB 2 or above.)
2. Is there a limit on the size of the memory stick the system will recognise. ie will it recognise a 64 GB or 128 GB.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi Joto. Apologies for the delayed response, and thanks for getting in touch. We’ve spoken to our technical team who have advised that connectivity with USB 3.0 should not be a problem. Toyota advises using a 16GB memory stick. We hope this helps.
Hi Michael
Thanks for your reply.
With the ability to rip with higher bit rate etc these days, 16GB seems a bit limiting. Oh well I`ll just have to live with it.
Thanks again.
I have just bought a verso with a Touch 2 Go system and when I plug in my Samsung S6 via the USB it manages to access the music 1 time out of 10. I have an auris with touch and go and that works pretty well with the same phone and usb connection. seems like the touch 2 go has a problem. I am trying to upgrade the software / maps but am struggling to get to the end of that procedure (even when try to buy the upgrade from the Toyota portal.
All very hard work to be honest.
Hi Ken, thanks for the feedback. We’ve noticed your other comment and advise you to wait for a response back from the team, as they are back in the office today. Please let us know if you don’t hear back from them. Thanks.
Hi, the manual of the touch 2 with go system in my new Corolla tells that, when starting the car, the sound system will automatically play the last used device (fm, cd, usb, …). Mine doesn’t do that: it always starts the usb. Is there something I can do to let it play the last used mode ?
My touch 2 with go+ also crashes with USB sticks larger then 8 gbyte or containing a lot of files. Sometimes just plays the first 20 seconds after which usb is unusable untill a full power off which is impossible whilst driving 🙂
My 128 gbyte fat 32 stick is basically useless
