A new model has joined the Toyota Corolla family – the all-new 2019 Corolla Hatchback has arrived, and its bringing game-changing connectivity along for the ride.
Answering the call of Toyota fans, the all-new Corolla Hatchback offers the most current array of systems and features designed to help keep you connected, entertained and on course, no matter the destination.
Toyota’s Connectivity Powerhouse: Entune™ 3.0
Corolla Hatchback’s Entune 3.0 system enables a comprehensive connection between the car, the driver and the motoring world around. Entune 3.0 is a suite of smart apps and connected services that are designed to make every trip more enjoyable and enhance your peace of mind along the way.
For instance, you can tap into Destination Assist Connect system (only on vehicles with embedded navigation), where a live 24/7 agent can help you search for a destination and send directions directly to your car’s display screen. The Entune 3.0 system can also help you on your journey by keeping you informed with frequent weather and traffic updates.
Stay safe with Entune 3.0’s available Safety Connect system, which allows drivers to summon emergency help at the touch of a button. The vehicle can even communicate your vehicle’s location to first responders should the driver be unable to respond after a collision.
Modern drivers demand to be more connected than ever, and Corolla Hatchback’s standard Entune 3.0 system puts what’s important to you, right at your fingertips.
Apple CarPlay ™ – to Use Your iPhone in Your Car
iPhone enthusiasts will be excited to learn that the Corolla Hatchback supports Apple CarPlay™, which allows drivers to access music, calls, navigation and more, right from the central touch-screen. Drivers simply need to bring their iPhone on board, plug it in and leave it stored away.
With Apple CarPlay™, several iPhone functionalities are available, right on your Corolla Hatchback’s display screen. Ask Siri, the Apple voice assistant, to perform tasks for you while you drive - whether it’s playing your favourite song, setting a reminder, or displaying directions in the Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze app. If enabled, Apple CarPlay™ can even dictate incoming text messages and allow you to respond with voice commands.
Best of all, there’s no need to learn a new interface or a new voice command structure: With Apple CarPlay™, your iPhone’s voice-command system and on-screen interfaces work exactly as they normally do.
No iPhone? No Problem – Thanks to Embedded Tech
If you don’t own an iPhone, no need to fret. The Corolla Hatchback still has you covered.
Drivers with a compatible smartphone can experience Bluetooth connectivity and Entune’s 3.0 App Suite seamlessly in their car. Once your phone has been paired once, you’ll be able to enjoy these features every time you get in your car.
Available embedded navigation system also means you’re always connected and on course, regardless of the smartphone you choose to use.
Technology, Accessible to Everyone
Toyota’s designers and technologists were tasked with making it easier than ever for drivers to access what they needed on the go. That’s why the Corolla Hatchback is available with an 8-inch Touchscreen, that is mounted beside the steering wheel and displays requested information. Further, steering wheel mounted controls allow drivers to change displayed information, media playback settings and sources, and to safely access Apple’s Siri voice assistant on the go.
For the Tech Savvy
It’s only fitting that the new Corolla Hatchback offers up so many features that reflect the wireless world we live in. Of particular interest is available wireless charging technology, which provides a novel way to keep a compatible smartphone juiced up on the go: Just lay the handset over the dedicated wireless charging surface, and the battery is replenished, no wires required.
Beyond these connectivity features, this model has even more to offer. Learn more about the all-new 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback.
