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.
Your website and brochures in the UK all show the Toyota Avensis Icon as having the Touch 2 & Go installed as standard. I cannot find anywhere where this says it is not an option in the UK.
Hi Stuart
Thanks for your post and for pointing this out. There was an error in our previous response as Touch 2 is available in the UK on Avensis and is standard on vehicle grades from Icon and above. We apologise for any confusion caused and hopes this helps clarify.
Hi.
I´m from Spain and I have a RAV4 120D with Touch 2 System without GO. I have a problem wiyh my Iphone and I can´t find anybody with the problem. I ´ll try to explain, my English is very bad.
When I connect my Iphone with ligthning cable to play music, sometimes, the screen shows this message “A communication problem has ocurred” with a button “Accept” but the music still playing. If I touch the accept button music stops.
Trying to know what was the problem I realize that when the Iphone lose network coberture the messasge display. If you want to simulate you can active the fly mode in the Iphone while the music is playing.
Has anybody this problem????.
Here in Spain my Toyota partner can´t help me and they have no idea of what is happening.
Thanks.
Hello,
I have a Toyota Auris TS hybrid from March 2014, will the new Toyota touch 2 system be updated on the first Toyota`s revision models?
Hi Elias,
Thanks for for getting in touch with us. If you own a model year 2014 Auris Hybrid then it will have Toyota Touch 2 as standard. Hope this helps. If you have any more questions please do not hesitate to get in touch with us. Thanks
Hi Matt,
Well this model was built at the end of Jan 2014 and i got it on March 2014, but it has toyota touch 1, so it might be an early 2014 model but without the new touch 2 system.
Will it be possible to upgrade it with no cost, or will I have to pay for the upgrade?
By the way, I am from Spain, just in case this is different between EU regions.
Many thanks,
Elias.
Hi Elias,
Every country will have different options and pricing plans for accessories. The best thing to do is to speak with your local dealer in Spain. We do not want to give you information that is incorrect!
I have a 2014 Rav4 with Touch2&go.
I’ve seen some pictures from user manuals where in the CAR menú you can see the tires presure but I can’t see it on my car. How can I see this option?
Can I upgrade from touch2&go to plus when available?
How can I install e-store app? It’s not on muy account options
Thanks

Hi, I have a 2014 GT86 with Touch & Go fitted and very disappointed the radio is still only FM/AM in this day an age.
Can somebody please confirm if there is an available DAB upgrade for the T&G, without resorting to what’s out there on the internet.
Hi Bill
Thanks for your post.
We appreciate your feedback about the audio system in the GT86 and the lack of DAB. It is fair to say that we are increasing this option across the range of vehicles we sell but do accept it is not currently on all. We do not have a DAB upgrade for Touch & Go on the GT86 unfortunately. As we progress with the new Touch 2 system it will be possible to upgrade to DAB and we are increasing the introduction of this system on our vehicles throughout the year. Apologies that we cannot provide a more positive response at this time.
Hi David,
Many thanks for your honest reply regarding any future DAB upgrade on the GT86 T&G audio system. However wouldn’t it be good customer relations for all owners like myself who would consider a reasonable cost upgrade, for Toyota to contacts us via our dealer ships to register an interest etc thus Toyota having a ready made potential sales projection for all T&G upgrade.
Even consider an update article on your news letters etc.
Hi Alybe
Thanks for your post and query regarding your RAV4.
Some vehicle manuals will show features that are not applicable to the UK market. For our market specification we have a tyre pressure monitoring system – it monitors a change in pressure rather than actively measuring the pressure. Apologies for any confusion caused but hope this has helped clarify.
Hi Bill
Thanks for reply and appreciate your feedback.
A good point and your comments have been passed to the team who develop our vehicle accessories. You are right that an idea of numbers and potential sales is key to developing new accessories but we will keep you posted if this does change or I receive further feedback from the team.
