Wireless Apple CarPlay
Apple CarPlay is the most comfortable and safest way to use your iPhone on the move. Now available over a wireless connection, Apple CarPlay takes all of your favourite iOS features and apps and puts them directly on your large dashboard touchscreen. Navigate with Apple or selected 3rd party maps, stream your favourite music, make and receive calls, and even read and reply to text messages all on the big screen. You can also use simple voice commands to control your iPhone hands-free – just tell Siri what you need, and your Kenwood receiver will take care of the rest.
Android Auto Compatible
Connect your phone directly to your Kenwood receiver and enjoy all of the best Android apps and features on the big screen. You can use Android Auto to safely navigate, communicate, and entertain – plus Google Assistant can access all of your features completely hands-free. Navigate with Google and WAZE maps, send and receive messages via SMS, Messenger, and WhatsApp, listen to Spotify and Google Music, or explore a world of compatible apps on the Google Play Store. The USB connection ensures you always remain connected while keeping your phone charged at the same time.
DAB+ Digital Radio
Kenwood delivers radio as you’ve never heard it before. With CD-quality sound, flawless signal quality, and an expanded selection of digital channels to explore, DAB+ is radio for the smartphone generation. With well over 100 digital channels from around Australia, you can browse a wide range of music, news, and talkback stations no matter where you are. With an included DAB+ digital receiver, you’ve got everything you need to experience a new world of crystal-clear music.
Wireless & USB Mirroring
Mirroring is the smartest way to share your Android phone with other people in the car. Via a wireless or USB connection, you can connect your Android phone to quickly share photos, videos, and other great content all on the big screen. With Wi-Fi mirroring, you don’t even need a cable connection, allowing anyone in the vehicle to connect their device quickly and easily. With selected Android models, you can also control your phone directly using standard touch controls.
7 Inch Capacitive Display
Experience the best in-car entertainment on a huge 7-inch capacitive touchscreen. Using the same technology as your smartphone, the Kenwood screen allows you to touch multiple points at the same time and control your AV receiver with minimal effort. Photos and videos are displayed with stunning clarity and brightness, while all of Kenwood’s widgets and apps are available at the touch of a button. The backlit HD display also features anti-glare and anti-fingerprint technology, delivering a crystal-clear viewing experience every single time.
Dual USB with 1.5A Charging
Never run low on battery again and double your charging power thanks to Kenwood’s inclusion of dual-USB inputs. If you’re navigating with maps, streaming music, or using any of Kenwood’s extra phone connectivity features, you can now keep two devices fully-charged for the entire journey. Dual-USB is especially useful if you’re someone who drives for a living, with two powerful 1.5A ports that deliver fast charging and ensure you’re always connected – even if you’re on the road all day.
Triple Camera Input
If you’re a driver that needs some extra eyes on the road, Kenwood’s triple-camera inputs allow you to connect up to three external cameras into the one receiver. You can easily select, view, and switch between cameras via the large touchscreen, perfect for situations such as parking, towing, or navigating into tight spaces. Reverse cameras make it easier to judge distances and avoid obstacles or pedestrians. With selected Kenwood models, you can also access on-screen parking guidelines for a stress-free experience.
Dual Phone Full Time Connectivity
With dual-Bluetooth technology, you can now keep two phones paired full-time and double your entertainment, communication, and navigation options. Your selected phones will automatically connect to your Kenwood receiver any time they’re in the vehicle, eliminating the need to regularly pair and un-pair devices. You can now also receive an incoming call on either phone while continuing to stream music or navigate with maps on the other. Once again, Kenwood has set the new standard when it comes to staying connected on the move.
13 Band EQ
Customise your favourite music with Kenwood’s in-built 13-band graphic equaliser. Choose from a selection of pre-loaded settings to suit your taste, or configure your own EQ for a truly unique sound. Pump up the bass for hip-hop and dance music, raise the mid-levels for powerful guitar solos, or increase the high-end for sharper vocals and drums. The interface is intuitive and easy-to-use, displayed in high-resolution on the Kenwood touchscreen. With this 13-band graphical EQ, Kenwood gives you the control to listen to your music, your way.
