Vauxhall will launch a new generation of infotainment systems in Insignia models, later this year.

The new Multimedia and Multimedia Navi Pro infotainment systems are expected to be easier to use and will be rolled out across the Vauxhall model range in 2019.

Using an eight-inch high-resolution colour touchscreen and clearly-arranged Driver Information Cluster, the systems provide Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with the ability to pair two phones simultaneously.

The top-level Multimedia Navi Pro introduces connected navigation services that optimise points of interest and destination searches, as well as Live Traffic, real-time fuel prices, parking information and online map updates.

Live Traffic pulls travel information from multiple sources when paired with a smartphone, allowing traffic flow and driving conditions to be updated in near real-time.

The new design of the Multimedia and Multimedia Navi Pro offers tablet-like controls and swipe-gestures.

The Multimedia Navi Pro infotainment system allows up to five drivers able to define their own profiles. The profiles allow users to save numerous adjustments from climate-control settings, to their preferred equalisation for the speaker system. Favourite destinations, playlists and points of interests are all stored according to the personalised profile, enabling the driver to concentrate on their journey.
