At Google I/O in San Francisco, the company reveals its new interface for Android in the car. The new software will integrate with your smartphone and also give voice control over mapping and messaging in the car. Twenty-five automakers will support Android Auto at launch.
Live from Google's developers conference, we sat down to take a look at Android Auto, the new system that turns your car stereo into your phone.
Google's going after your car's dashboard in a big way this year with Android Auto, facing off with Apple's CarPlay in a battle of dashboard supremacy. There are four cars on the show floor at Google I/O this year, and we climbed into one to get you a full walk-through of the system.
Andrew Brenner gives Darrell an in-car demonstration of the Android smartphone powered car system. Included is Google Play, GPS directions, and more. All powered by either voice command or a touchscreen display.
Meet Google's answer to Apple's CarPlay: Android Auto- and it puts the (almost) full power of Android in your car.

Now that the commercial release of Google's Android Auto is around the corner, we took it for a spin at CES 2015 — and ended up at a chapel.
Android Auto is Google’s play to get in your car and make you a safer driver. It’s now available in the 2015 Hyundai Sonata, which is the first car you can get Android Auto in from the factory. We spent a couple of weeks behind the wheel of an Android Auto equipped Sonata to see how it all works.

With its smartphone roots, Android Auto may seem made of touchscreens, but Audi's implementation in the all new Q7 SUV will rely on Audi's standard indirect controller situated on the console.
Android Auto was designed to give drivers a simple, intuitive way through touch and voice to minimize the potential for distraction so the driver can stay focused on the road. Compatible with Android 5.0 and higher, Android Auto features Google Maps, Google Now, messaging, music and numerous popular apps.
Our cars get us where we're going, while our phones keep us connected. Reach your users while they're out and about by extending your Media or Messaging app to Android Auto. As you'll learn in this course, making your app available in the car is as easy as extending your existing code. This course explains how to get started and then covers Media and Messaging apps in detail.
Google just announced that Android Auto will work on phones later this year, meaning you don’t need an Android Auto-compatible car to use it.
Google is showing off new ways to fully integrate its mobile OS Android into automobiles. Really expensive automobiles, but hey they are fast too.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto promise to bring the familiar experience of your smartphone to the dashboard of your car. So which is better? The Verge’s Lauren Goode reports.
Android Auto brings a new interface and exclusive apps to your car's in-dash color screen and cockpit controls. Smartphone integration lets you enjoy a variety of audio, entertainment and communication apps via an interface that looks and works like your Android phone. Since it links your phone (including the power of Google voice recognition) to your car, you can make calls, hear or dictate text messages, navigate to a destination, stream music, and more.
Android in the Car lets you control entertainment and navigation in the car, but also your garage doors, temperature in the home and more.
Your Google Assistant is now available on Android Auto. So whether you have a compatible car - or the Android Auto app - you can now have hands-free help while you drive.
