A client from Moseley recently visited our Midlothian location with his 2015 Mazda CX9, looking to upgrade the technology. The Mazda was lacking in overall features like Bluetooth audio streaming and navigation.
After reviewing the options available, we could see that his CX-9 was a prime candidate for one of the new “floating tablet”-style radios. Alpine somewhat invented the category with what is referred to as the “Halo 9.” It’s a 9″ touchscreen radio that’s made to hover in front of the original radio location. This allows for a much-larger user interface, making it easier to use while driving. With features like Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, HD radio and more, he’s now able to use mapping and music apps from his phone right on the screen of the radio. We were also able to retain his factory-amplified sound system, backup camera and steering wheel controls.
