How to use Android Auto in your SEAT car

Android Auto is the version of Android for cars, and it is compatible with a large number of car brands and models. On this occasion we would like to talk about the compatibility and configuration of Android Auto in SEAT cars, one of the most symbolic brands in our country for having its origins in it. As you know, SEAT currently belongs to the VAG group but it originated in Spain and this firm has always been characterized by having a very good price/quality ratio.

Connecting a SEAT car with Android Auto is very simple, as long as you have a car model compatible with this interface or you have installed a different radio than the one that comes standard that offers compatibility with Android Auto. Let's go, before seeing how it connects, with the car models compatible with Android Auto as standard.

Which SEAT models are compatible with Android Auto?

There are many SEAT car models compatible with Android Auto. Currently most of them come with this system but in the following lines we leave you with the complete list in case you have any kind of doubt:

• SEAT Alhambra, from 2016 onwards.
• SEAT Arona, from 2017 onwards.
• SEAT Ateca, from 2016 onwards.
• SEAT Ibiza, from 2016 onwards.
• SEAT León, from 2016 onwards.
• SEAT Toledo, from 2016 onwards.

Currently these are all SEAT car models that support Android Auto as standard. In previous models, it is possible that support for Android Auto was an extra or that a radio could be coupled with this system, but we know that most of the brand's cars keep the radio as standard. If, on the other hand, years pass and you want to see the cars that are compatible with this function, you can see the official Android Auto website to check if your car model is compatible through this link.

How to connect a SEAT car to your mobile so that Android Auto works?

Android Auto has been working for some time on a connection model that allows the mobile phone to work with the car through the WiFi connection, but currently its compatibility and functions are quite limited.To be able to connect your SEAT car with Android Auto you need these things:

• A SEAT car that supports Android Auto.
• An Android phone with support for Android Auto.
• A USB cable to connect your mobile to the car (normally it will work with the cable you use to charge the mobile or a cable with similar characteristics). "Chinese" or poor quality USB cables can cause problems with Android Auto. We always recommend using certified cables or the serial cable that comes with the mobile as long as it is not damaged.

The vast majority of Android phones support Android Auto. If you meet these requirements, you can move on to the next phase, the connection phase. To connect a mobile phone with Android Auto to your car, the steps are very simple.

• Download and install the Android Auto app from Google Play on your mobile, open it and put it to work by configuring all the parts it asks for (it will take almost no time at all).
• Once this is done, start the car and make sure the radio has a connection.
• Now, connect the USB cable from your mobile to the car.
• Directly, without doing anything, the phone will connect and start Android Auto in your car with all the information from your phone.
• You can even activate the new Android Auto design by following this tutorial.
