Android Auto extends the Android platform into the car in a way that’s purpose-built for driving. With a simple and intuitive interface and powerful new voice actions, it’s designed to minimize distraction. It automatically brings useful information organized into simple cards that appear when needed. So, when you are in a rush and need to quickly call someone, you are able to do so safely and efficiently.

Various audio features and more for high quality sound fans

In addition to 4x55W highest industry output power, this AV receiver features the EXTRA BASS™*** circuitry which overcomes engine noise and reproduces clear punch sound at any volume level. The 2-mode boost steps allow you to get delicate and heavy boost settings, depending on your mood. You can also benefit from the sound optimization as the DSO (Dynamic Stage Organizer) creates a more vivid sound as if there were speakers in front of you. The 10-band equalizer (EQ10) with 10 presets provides easy and effective frequency adjustment for various listening environments. Compared to the conventional double-DIN receiver units, its slimmer back chassis with external space underneath enables easier cable management when installing.
