DID I MAKE A MISTAKE GETTING THE HONDA CIVIC 2015 THINKING IT WILL HAVE ANDROID AUTO ???
Honda hasn’t set any dates, yet. Currently no cars on the market have Android Auto. We believe that Honda uses Android in its development. Hopefully Honda will offer a software update. Another option if you have lots of money is to replace your infotianment system with a new Pioneer system.
