Three benefits of the Google built-in infotainment system offered in the new 2023 Volvo XC40

The new 2023 Volvo XC40 comes with multiple enhancements and improvements this year. The powertrain lineup is now fully electrified, delivering more power and better efficiency, and there are multiple new technologies offered on the entry-level Volvo SUV. Among these new technologies are the remarkable features of the Google built-in infotainment system. Here we look at three impressive features offered with the new infotainment system in the XC40.

 

Advanced Google Maps navigation

 

Navigation systems used to be a big deal in vehicles until we were able to connect our smartphones. From there, most drivers preferred using a mobile app and their phone docked on their dashboard then the navigation system built into their vehicle. With the 2023 Volvo XC40, you might just decide to switch back to the navigation system housed in the centre 9-inch screen. That's because this nav system uses Google Maps technology to provide real-time traffic information along with automatic rerouting and up-to-date destination information. Essentially, you get the same advanced functions of the Google Maps app on your phone, but seamlessly integrated into the XC40’s infotainment system.

 

Google Assistant voice command functionality

 

The Google Assistant system in your XC40 allows you to control various functions using advanced voice commands. All you have to do is say “Hey Google” and you can request directions, access your phones contacts and make a call, or start a particular song that you want to listen to. In other words, you can adjust and access the features you want using your voice.

 

Google Play App Store access

 

Your Google built-in infotainment system is like having an android phone in your vehicle. That means that you can access many of the same Google Play apps that you use on your phone which can significantly enhance the overall ownership experience. You can access entertainment and convenience applications and ultimately you get significantly more features than on most infotainment systems.
