Android auto update
Android auto update: Building on its leadership in providing in-vehicle connectivity, Chevrolet will offer a software update to provide AndroidAuto™† compatibility. This offer is directed at consumers in the U.S. who buy select 2016 model year vehicles equipped with the available 8-inch diagonal Chevrolet MyLink† display. Earlier this year, Chevrolet announced it will offer AndroidAuto† compatibility in more 2016 models than any automotive brand. The 14 Chevrolet models include vehicles ranging from the brand’s most affordable car, the all-new 2016 Spark, to its highest performance model, the Corvette Z06. The update will be available starting in March 2016 and will be performed exclusively by Chevrolet dealers.
