Overview of Google Infotainment Systems
Volvo infotainment screens use "Google built-in," a combination of user-friendly apps that make every drive a breeze.
Google Assistant™, for instance, operates with hands-free voice command. Google Play™ stores your apps and helps you find new ones, integrating them seamlessly into your system. Finally, Google Maps™ communicates with you as it finds the best route to your destination. Owners of Volvo XC90 Recharge or other PHEV and EV models, take note: Google Maps™ will find nearby charging stations when your plug-in hybrid or EV is low on juice!
Although "Google built-in" functions on an Android Automotive OS platform, it supports Apple CarPlay® in addition to Android Auto™ wired or wireless connectivity.
You can rest assured your favorite model from our showroom in Jacksonville, FL, will have a premium form of infotainment from a new Volvo XC60 to another one of our elevated cars and SUVs.
