Default Email and Text messages reading

When a an email or text message arrives it is announced by a voice asking would you like to read it. Is there a way to give a voice command to read it, rather than using the touch pad which is a driving distraction? Or, is it possible to have it auto read by default and only use the touch pad to cancel the read if not wanted? I am trying to have as little driving distractions as possible... Thanks!

I have an HTC One M8 (Android Marshmallow). Once set-up in the settings menu, and the phone paired properly, it worked without problem... It reads email and text messages but does not read Whatsapp messages. I am just disappointed I have to use the touchpad to listen to a message... I don't have an iPhone anymore so I can't test it with an iPhone.

On iOS (iPhones) it will read texts aloud. Email it will not; it is not email-aware.
