If you want to play music in your 2020 Toyota Avalon, you have plenty of options. The only option that is notably missing is Android Auto™. If you do have an android device and want to play music, you still have options. But first, it is important to know which audio package you have on the 2020 Toyota Avalon. Read on below for the different audio packages and their details. more Audio Plus Package This audio package is the standard audio setup for the 2020 Toyota Avalon. Standard doesn’t mean it’s limited, though. There are more ways to connect to your favorite music, podcasts, talk shows, and audiobooks than you would guess for a standard audio system. Bluetooth® Wireless Connectivity Apple CarPlay® Connectivity Amazon Alexa Compatible for Voice Command Siri® Eyes Free for Voice Command SiriusXM Satellite Radio with 3-Month All-Access Trial HD Radio USB 2.0 Media Port How Do I Connect My iPhone to My 2020 Toyota Avalon? There are also a few convenient features that help make your audio easier to play and sound great doing it. Wi-Fi Connect Built-In Mobile Hotspot powered by Verizon with 6-Month Trial 8-Speaker Sound System 9-Inch Touchscreen Premium Audio Package For the best audio capabilities, go for the premium audio package that comes standard on the Touring and Limited trim levels. This system has the same connectivity options for wireless and wired streaming from smart devices, satellite radio, and voice command. Where things differ is the equipment that plays back audio and a few additional features. These features include: 14 JBL® Brand Speakers 1200-Watt Amplifier Dynamic Voice Recognition Toyota Remote Connect with 6-Month Trial Subwoofer If all of this is just mumbo-jumbo to you, suffice it to say that the premium audio package is superior in every way. It doesn’t subtract anything from the base audio package and adds speakers that sound better and have a lot more power behind them. Even if you plan to leave the DJ-ing to your front passenger, the Avalon can play just about everything your passengers could want to play, and a way to play it without using their mobile data if you subscribe to the Wi-Fi service beyond the trial period.

The Toyota Avalon is compatible with Apple CarPlay®, meaning anyone with an iPhone that’s relatively new can connect to it and enjoy their favorite apps through the car for safer, less-distracted driving. This blog is meant to take you step-by-step through the process of setting up Apple CarPlay®. These instructions apply specifically to the fifth generation of the Toyota Avalon, which includes the 2019 and 2020 model years, and will likely remain relevant for a few model years until the next time the Avalon is redesigned. more Apple CarPlay® Setup Step One First off, you need to make sure your iPhone is compatible with Apple CarPlay®. You need to have an iPhone 5 or newer in order for it to work. That includes all versions of the iPhone 5, 6, 7, and on. As long as you have an iPhone 5 or newer, you need to turn on Bluetooth® on your phone, then pair your phone to the car’s Bluetooth®. If you need help completing this step, refer to this guide from Apple: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203412 2020 Toyota Avalon Limited Interior Features Apple CarPlay® Setup Step Two Start your car. As always, only navigate menus while parked, but when your car is on, press the menu button on the left side of the screen. Press the Setup button with the icon of a gear on it. In the list of setup options, you will need to locate the CarPlay® on/off button and switch it to “on.” Apple CarPlay® Setup Step Three To fully take advantage of Apple CarPlay® functionality, you need to connect your phone with a USB cable. This will likely be the cable your phone uses to charge. Plug the big rectangular end into the USB port in the center console of the Avalon. Note: there will be up to three USB ports, but two are marked for charging only. Use the one that is not marked for charging. In some versions of the Avalon, this port will have an auxiliary audio (3.5 mm) jack just above it. Plug the other end of the cable into your iPhone. Apple CarPlay® Setup Step Four Press the menu button on the left side of the car touchscreen again and select the Apple CarPlay® option and you’re good to go! In this mode, you can use your Apple Maps, Messages, and iTunes without needing to pick up your phone. It should also make hands-free calling as simple as can be. Learn to use the controls on your steering wheel and you’ll master Apple CarPlay® in no time!
