It is called Honda Connect and it runs Android the world’s most popular Smartphone
operating system – employing the familiar ‘pinch, swipe and tap‘ functionality of
a Smartphone. The seven-inch display can be customised to suit an individual’s
preferences with two different ‘skins‘ to choose from, allowing users to make the
system their own. Colour-coded icons ensure navigating through the touchscreen
menus is quick and simple.
Honda Connect gives front-seat occupants fast and easy access to everything from
vehicle information and rear-view parking camera, to music and Bluetooth connectivity
for smart phones. The new system’s functions include internet access, two pre-installed
apps, Honda App Centre, optional Garmin satellite navigation, DAB / FM / AM and internet
radio, phone interface and Bluetooth connectivity, rear-view parking camera with
dynamic guidelines; and a range of vehicle information, such as trip meter, fuel economy
and journey time.
