Does Lexus allow Google map navigation in NX's Head-up display? I have seen Rav4 Prime's head-up display and it doesn't allow google map there, but car's own map.

 

Another question is whether google maps turn by turn show up on the 7 inch information display in the driver dash?

 

I don’t have an answer - but are we talking about using google maps from inside CarPlay or AndroidAuto? Or is there a separate Google Maps app in the infotainment?

im definitely curious about the former. I guess I expected that displaying navigation from CP/AA would be a standard feature. But I could see an automaker not supporting it in order to railroad customers into paying for their navigation subscriptions.

 

I don’t have the answer either, but this MotorTrend article may shed some light on the topic. The reviewer states “The touchscreen-based system uses Google Maps for navigation”. Of course, this is just one reviewers assessment…

Only Apple Maps and built in Nav shares Turn by turn with heads up. Unclear why this is the chosen approach.
