Android Auto

[Bill Hall]

The infotainment system in my 2022 G80 Prestige supports Android Auto, but it apparently must be plugged in via USB. The latest version of Android Auto supports connections via bluetooth. And I know that some cars support this. I tested a BMW 3 series that worked this way with my phone.

The firmware in my car is the June, 2021 version.

How often does the software get updated? And does anyone know if this feature will be added? I don't know where to look for this type of information.

I wouldn't count on it being added later. Android Auto doesn't work over Bluetooth, there's not enough bandwidth. It works over wifi and as far as I know, there's no wifi radio in the car. There are wireless AA dongles you can buy though.
