Jaguar Land Rover today announced both Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ functionality have been added as standard equipment on the 2019 Jaguar I-PACE, as well as an option on select 2019 model year vehicles equipped with the InControl Touch Pro™ and Touch Pro Duo™ infotainment systems. Drivers are now able to interact with key mobile apps, such as Spotify, WhatsApp, and, with the release of iOS12, Waze through the vehicle’s touchscreen, in a manner similar to a smartphone. Where equipped, certain functionality can even be controlled via the vehicle’s Voice Control, providing additional convenience. Owners will simply connect their smartphone to the vehicle via a compatible USB cable and select Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™ on the vehicle’s touchscreen2,5. Visit Apple.com and Android.com for the current list of devices and apps which share system compatibility. The smartphone pack, which includes Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ is standard on all Jaguar I-PACE models from launch. Additionally, from the 2019 model year forward, all vehicles equipped with the Jaguar and Land Rover InControl Touch Pro™ or Touch Pro Duo™ infotainment systems with navigation, InControl® Apps™, and Wi-Fi connectivity will be available with the optional Smartphone Pack4. Depending on the model, the Smartphone Pack will be either a port- or factory-installed option for around $300, depending on model and trim level 1. In addition to the new Smartphone Pack, Jaguar and Land Rover have made a number of other key enhancements to the InControl Touch Pro™ infotainment system for the 2019 model year, including:

Voice command for Navigation functionality introduced for select models;

Major graphical refresh on the “Home,” “Extra Features” and “Customizable Homepage” screens; Minor user experience changes to the button and icon placement on “Media Screen”; and Additional shortcut buttons on the home screen for key functions within Navigation, Media, and Phone.

InControl Touch Pro™

This Jaguar Land Rover infotainment system, first introduced in 2016, is built around a fast SSD and a 10-inch touchscreen with a seamless, button-free interface. It features rapid navigation, pinch/zoom map gestures, and offline dead-reckoning. Smart journey planning checks fuel/battery range and suggests charging stations. Real-time features include ETA sharing, traffic-aware alternative routes, and a 360° Approach Mode with parking assist near your destination.

InControl Touch Pro Duo™

Debuting on the 2018 Range Rover Velar, this system features dual upper and lower touchscreens for a minimalist, intuitive experience. The upper screen handles navigation and media with familiar gestures, while the lower screen controls climate, seats, and vehicle settings. Physical rotary dials and a customizable digital instrument cluster enhance ease of use. The logical split of information across two screens reduces distraction and delivers a connected, user-friendly drive.
