Toyota Motor Corp. agreed to add Android Auto to its vehicles, according to a person familiar with the matter, ending years of resistance to the Google infotainment software due to safety and security concerns.
Nothing is official just yet. A spokesperson for Toyota did comment on the story, though, saying that the company is aware that there is a high demand for Android Auto.
The addition of Android Auto may attract customers who had stayed away from Toyota vehicles because of the lack of connectivity. More than 80 percent of smartphones use the software from Google, with the rest using Apple’s iOS system, according to data compiled by Bloomberg Intelligence.
The automaker was vocal about concerns with Android Auto and protecting customer privacy:
