Mazda Vehicles now iPod Compatible

Plex

Mazda vehicles in Europe just got even cooler. Starting today, Mazda Motor Europe will offer its cars with iPod� compatibility. The system consists of an adaptor whose only visible component is a jack in the glove box, to which an iPod� with dock connector can be attached. Customers can then play music files on the car�s factory-installed audio system using the audio controls on the centre stack or the steering wheel (if ordered); including Fast Forward and Rewind, Change List, Random Play and other functions.

It is also very practical to use. If you decide to leave the iPod� in the vehicle, you can secure it by locking the glove box before locking the car. And because it automatically recharges, you don�t have to worry about the batteries being low if you take the iPod� with you.

The iPod� adaptor is available starting now with the all-new Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe along with several models of the line up. These include the Mazda2; along with Mazda3, Mazda5 and Mazda6 facelift models without hard disc drive audio, and the third-generation Mazda MX-5 soft top.
