You’re Going to Love the New Toyota Audio Multimedia System

There’s nothing quite like the freedom of hitting the open road. But it’s even better when you have a few of your favorite tunes to accompany you along the way. That’s where Toyota’s new audio multimedia system comes into play.

The team at Beaverton Toyota knows everything there is to know about the latest Toyota models and the features that put Toyota in a class all its own. Allow us to give you an inside look at what sets the new Toyota audio multimedia system apart from the rest. We’ll also fill you in on how to get the most out of this cutting-edge technology.

The features of the Toyota audio multimedia system vary from model to model. Explore specs and options by vehicle on Toyota’s audio and multimedia site and find your perfect car.

A New Experience

Toyota describes its new audio multimedia system as a game-changer, and we understand why. For starters, the new system features a high-definition touchscreen supporting easy-to-touch functionality. The main menu also appears on the left side in many models, making the system more intuitive to use.

The new system also makes it easier than ever to find and save your favorite music. Remember the days of traveling out of town and having to scan a ton of radio stations before finding one that you like? Fortunately, with the variety of features in the new Toyota audio multimedia system, those days are long gone. Instead, the new system takes the guesswork out of the whole process by making suggestions based on your musical preferences.

So how does it all work? Well, the system’s menu displays the stations most likely to play your favorite music. You can then use the heart button to store that station in your favorites list, making it easier to return to that station later on in your travels.

On the other hand, many people prefer listening to music-streaming services rather than the radio. If that sounds like you, the new Toyota audio multimedia system makes that even simpler to do. The wireless capabilities mean you can connect to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto without ever having to plug in your phone. There’s also a new streaming feature for Apple Music and Amazon Music so you can connect to those services simply by using Wi-Fi Connect.

But the enhanced capabilities don’t end there. The new system also comes with a better Bluetooth connection, so up to five total devices can be paired. You even have the ability to pair two devices at the same time. It all adds up to an entirely new, more convenient, and easy-to-use experience.

Personalization

Not everyone has the same tastes and needs when it comes to infotainment. That’s one of the reasons Toyota designed its new audio multimedia system with a personalized touch. You can customize your mobile control options based on the features you use most.

If your Toyota vehicle offers this service, simply download the Toyota mobile app, create a profile, and store your preferred settings. Once you do that, you only need to pair your user profile with your smartphone device or your vehicle’s smart key. Once you get behind the wheel, Toyota’s new audio multimedia system will instantly recognize your display preferences and favorite music.

It’s a true convenience for those looking to share their vehicle with another person. What’s more, you can even take your preferred settings on the road with you anytime you get into a Toyota car. The user profiles are transferable from one Toyota vehicle to the next.

Easier Navigation

Toyota’s new audio multimedia system makes it easier to get to where you’re going. Every new Toyota comes with a version of Toyota’s Connected Services. When activated, you can use Drive Connect Cloud Navigation to find the best route to your final destination. Not only will the navigation tool pull up a map screen, but you can use the zoom, tilt, and pan features to help you explore the screen more easily.

Select Toyota models allow for navigation updates to be installed over the air so you’ll have all the latest information during your travels. If a road has been blocked or there’s a better or quicker way to reach your destination, the map will incorporate those OTA updates.

In a dead zone? Not to worry. The maps can be used offline in most models as well. In some Toyotas, the Cloud Navigation feature also includes Google Point-of-Interest capability. Whether you’re road-tripping or commuting along your daily route, this search capability enables you to pinpoint special areas of interest.

A Safer Ride

We know how dangerous distracted driving can be. If you take your eyes off the road for just a few seconds to flip the channels on the radio, for instance, you could wind up in a serious car accident. That’s why Toyota’s latest audio multimedia system is designed with safety in mind.

The Voice Assistant tool in select models allows you to change your audio settings or control the temperature of your car through a simple verbal request. As an added bonus, when you subscribe to the Drive Connect Service, you can also use the Intelligent Assistant tool to search for the nearest gas station or find the latest weather report.

Going on a long drive and want to share your estimated time of arrival with family and friends? That’s easy to do with Toyota’s newest audio multimedia system. Vehicles with Drive Connect Cloud Navigation allow you to share your ETA with phone contacts so they know exactly when to expect you.

But don’t rely on us to tell you about all the benefits of Toyota’s new audio multimedia system. The best way to learn about it is to experience it firsthand. The 2022 Toyota Tundra is the first model to feature this cutting-edge system. Interested in taking one for a spin? Visit us at Beaverton Toyota, and we’ll let you take the Tundra out for a test drive. Find out for yourself why the new Toyota audio multimedia system is considered a real game-changer. Once you see everything it has to offer, we’re certain you’ll be glad you did.
