Voice control with the Google Assistant

The Google Assistant, which is integrated in the vehicle, makes it possible to control a number of functions, such as the climate system, Google Maps for navigation, FM radio* and phone, using your voice.

What is the Google Assistant?

The Google Assistant is a virtual assistant that enables you control various functions in the vehicle using your voice and get assistance with other things, such as searching for information, getting weather forecasts, managing your Google Calendar, etc.

The assistant understands natural speech, i.e., no knowledge of specific commands is needed to get the system to perform different tasks. Instead, the user can speak freely with the system, which will respond with answers to questions or will notify the user that it did not understand what was said.
