Pioneer Carrozzeria will release the Carrozzeria 6.8-inch display audio “DMH-SZ500” in June 2024, which is compatible with “Apple CarPlay” and “Android Auto” via wireless connection.
Supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
The car supports wireless connection, allowing for easy automatic connection to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and apps from your iPhone or smartphone can be displayed on the main display and intuitively operated using the touch panel. In addition to being able to display and use navigation apps on the large screen, it also supports voice control via Siri or Google Assistant, allowing you to search for destinations, play music, make hands-free calls, send text messages, and more, all without having to look at the screen while driving.
Compatible with “WebLink®” that allows you to enjoy various compatible apps on the main display
By connecting an iPhone or smartphone with the “WebLink® Host” app installed via USB and Bluetooth simultaneously, you can display and operate “WebLink®” compatible apps such as “YouTube™” and “WebLink® Cast” on the main unit’s display. When using the “WebLink® Cast” app, you can display the screen of your iPhone or smartphone on the main unit’s display and operate it directly, so you can enjoy your usual smartphone apps on a large screen.
Adopts a new interface that allows for intuitive and smooth operation
Frequently used functions such as music play/stop, mute, equalizer settings, and FM radio settings can be controlled using shortcut keys on the home screen, and the layout of function icons can be customized to suit your preferences, allowing for intuitive and smooth operation. Furthermore, the electrostatic flat-type hard keys are equipped with operation keys that directly transition to the “Apple CarPlay” and “Android Auto” screens.
A word from the editorial department
It now supports wireless connection, eliminating the need for a USB cable, and automatically connects to “Apple CarPlay” and “Android Auto” for easy use. This is a truly wonderful improvement. It eliminates the need to connect a USB cable, making it more convenient to use. If you have your smartphone with you when you get in the car, it will automatically connect, so you don’t have to do anything special.
For those currently using the previous generation Pioneer Display Audio, this is reason enough to replace it.
