Toyota have equipped their latest Avensis model with MirrorLink, the solution from the Car Connectivity Consortium (CCC) that allows compatible smartphones to integrate with the in-dash display.
MirrorLink is an open industry standard and the list of vehicle manufacturers that are signed up to the consortium is growing fast. As well as Avensis, MirrorLink is also available on Toyota IQ, Toyota Verso, Peugeot 108, Citroen C1 and a number of Volkswagen models including Polo and Golf.
A MirrorLink equipped car allows you to view and access your smartphone satnav via the in-dash display as well as a range of other apps.
Is there any information as to which operating system will be compatible?
Usually these things are limited to iOS devices. It would make sense if it were to available to the majority (currently Android 4.0+) of users. I know that if my phone/tablet wasn't supported it would be enough for me to look at competitors offerings.

Looks promising:

MirrorLink is the leading industry standard for car-smartphone connectivity and is designed for maximum interoperability between a wide range of smartphones and cars. It’s also the only OS- and OEM-agnostic standard for car-smartphone connectivity. Ultimately MirrorLink gives consumers freedom of choice and peace of mind when it comes to using their favorite devices in their favorite cars.
