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 Hamdi,
Sorry to hear you’re not happy. Unfortunately it is not possible to update the Touch and Go system to Touch 2. We understand this may be frustrating but we do update our cars periodically and your agreement to buy should have been based on the specification Auris Hybrid you have.
If you wish to speak to our Customer Relations team then you can call them on 01737 367600.
Kind regards,
Will
Hi Adam,
Thanks for your message.
You’ll be pleased to know you can have the ‘Go’ element to Toyota Touch installed at a later date. We recommend contacting your local Toyota dealer, who’ll be happy to advise options and prices. To find your local Toyota dealer please visit: http://po.st/hgeMjF.
Many thanks.
Hi, I have a Rav4 2014 Icon model with Touch 2 (no Nav).
I am trying to utilise the Mirror link function with a Samsung Galaxy S3 (identified in an earlier post as a compatible phone).
On the phone I have downloaded the Samsung DriveLink App, and whilst audio from this is ported to the vehicle, nothing from the phone appears on the display, and there are no menu options on the Touch 2 to start the mirror link function. Can you please advise how to resolve this?
Many thanks
Adam
I have a 2013 yaris tr with touch&go, and on Friday I am trading it in for a icon plus 2014. Will the touch&go from the tr be compatible with the icon plus if I wanted to swap them over. Thanks, STUART
Hi Stuart
Thanks for your post.
Just to let you know that Touch & Go and Touch 2 are different systems and cannot be transferred from one to the other. Hope this helps clarify but do let us know if you have any other questions.
Hello Adam
Thanks for your post and sorry to read about your problem using mirror link.
We have run this past our technical team and not too sure why this should not be working. They have asked whether you are using a USB cable to connect your phone to the Touch 2 system? It sounds like you have completed all the correct instructions, downloading the mirror link software and Touch 2 is able to work with this. They have mentioned that it is the phone software which drives the system but let us know more details and we will see what we can do.
Hope this helps.
Dear David
Many thanks for your reply. I had wrongly assumed that mirror link used a Bluetooth connection. Having tried the usb method as suggested, I can confirm that all is working well. It’s quite impressive!
Thanks again
Adam
Excellent news.
Thanks for letting us know Adam and glad all now sorted.
Hello i have toyota avensis 2014 with toyota touch 2 no navigation. I conect s3 with drive link and i dont have mirror on radio i have usb conection. How to conect phone with radio?
Hi Mark
Thanks for your post.
We currently do not offer Touch 2 on the Toyota Avensis in the UK market and we would recommend that you contact the Toyota distributor in your country. They will be able to help advise you further.
