I wouldn't be able to speak for the specific car, but what I do is go to crutchfield and input your car info there. I then use the information they give on equivalent radios, like trim kits and harness, to gauge what I would have to do to complete the install.

I have a slightly older model of this ATOTO stereo. It has been flawless now for several years. I also plugged a backup camera into it and it is awesome. I use my cellphones mobile hotspot when on the road and I can use Amazon music, pandora, sling tv netflix etc no problems. Mic is good for hands free calling, I have nothing bad to say about mine.

I don't understand why these knock-off no-name electronics brands feel the need to plaster their barely phonetic names on their products. No one wants to advertise that their car has an ATOTO or GENSUIX or PRBFRUBURRR stereo. Just make them nondescript so they pass for OEM.

So if I was looking for a double din deck, I would probably get a named brand (Kenwood) and would get their cheapest one that can do Android Auto through Bluetooth (no cables).

About 2 years ago we put in a Kenwood deck into our Subaru Forester 2012 and we installed a backup camera. We did not install any amps (for wife and she just wanted Android Auto and backup camera). The sound was so much better then stock.

I put an aftermarket radio in my Mazda6 2018 but with the new cars you can not upgrade the deck.

That was for a different model, you can see which model they are reviewing.

Also for a better deal your can buy the steering wheel control adapter and dash kit for 40% off by using a single point.
can you please elaborate? what is single point

It does just about everything backup camera, forward camera, GPS, I used my phone on it to make calls play music it's better I you can download any app you want off the Google Play Store. I use Waze sometime sometimes I use Google Maps . It's a great unit

Upgrading car stereos will be a thing of the past soon. All the manufacturers are using non standard screens and head units with climate control and every other car function built in making replacement impossible. You can really only upgrade speakers which is a mess because you have to find a clean signal output which can be impossible to even wire tap now.
Only true of the legacy big box brands.
China companies make kits for popular cars that replace the original infotainment screen. Not sure how they work, but I think they have a pass-through mode where the factory infotainment can use the new head unit's display and touchscreen.

Yes, you can purchase some of these kits for the more popular made models. I recently installed one of these kit on a Lexus, it added carplay and android auto to the mfg infotainment system. The oem screen, the backup camera, along with all the controls, including those on the steering wheel continue to work fine. It definitely added new life to an older vehicle.

Maybe these have improved, but I've been disappointed with the Atoto A6 I bought in 2018. My main two complaints are it's too slow to run Waze smoothly, and the radio reception is bad. I resorted to using an app called Head Unit Reloaded to emulate Android Auto and offload running Waze to my phone. That sort of worked, but it was so glitchy that I gave up on it. The radio reception is bad even with very strong stations that my factory radio could pick up 50 miles farther away from the station. I even pulled the unit out of the dash and checked the antenna connection to no avail.

I also couldn't get it and my phone to reliably automatically connect via Bluetooth. I usually had to fiddle with toggling the Bluetooth connection each time I got in the car, which was very irritating. Perhaps it was an incompatibility with my particular phone. I've gotten a new phone since, but I haven't bothered even trying to connect it to the Atoto unit. I've just been using it as a crummy radio for the last couple years because using connected apps on it was so frustrating.

The radio app is buggy too. My preset stations randomly disappear. The whole button for the preset goes away so I can't even create the preset again. The only solution I've found is a factory reset, which is very annoying and only a temporary fix.

I haven't checked for software updates in a couple years, but updates were few and far between during the first year or two that I actively checked for them. I think I might have gotten one update that didn't make any difference that I noticed.

There are things I do like about the unit. It starts up in only a couple seconds from sleeping when the ignition is turned on (cold boots take longer of course). It doesn't drain the battery when the car is off and the unit is sleeping. The screen is nothing special, but it is adequately bright even in the sun.

I spent lot of time tinkering with it to try to resolve the issues, but I was never happy with it. I definitely wouldn't have bought it if I had known about the issues I would have.

I recently bought the Atoto S8 Ultra and installed it yesterday, not gonna lie, don't waste your money on a A6. I installed a A6 in my son in law's truck last year. It was okay, a bit laggy but it was okay, not terrible.

I was running an Eonon from 2 or 3 years ago that was outdated and was trash from the day I bought it. Eonon is a bad company if anyone was wondering, they sent me parts to repair my own screen, when the digitizer wasn't working, 2 days after I installed it. Never buy from them.

My SOL's head unit still works, he's fine with his, but when I used it after installing it, I knew it was a mediocre unit, that's when I knew I wanted the S8 Ultra. This thing is super responsive, screen looks awesome.

It's a little on the expensive side if you're on a budget, I bought it refurbished from Atoto on Ebay for $295, but I know the S8 Ultra is going for $500+ in most places brand new, plus they're still honoring the warranty even though it's sold as refurb.

Like I said, don't buy A6, it's not worth it.

Fantastic price for this !

This is the new generation of the A6, much faster, Android 10, and one of the best Android head units out there for the price. I have one and it's awesome, super fast, and very well supported.
If your car has canbus steering wheel controls, get the harness with canbus box for that car brand.

IMPORTANT: if you have a Volkswagen, you have to get the Canbus harness, or it won't shut off and will drain your battery!

For a budget radio, this thing is awesome. I had it in my F350 for more than a year before selling my truck. It had everything I needed. Screen looked good, was using it mainly for Netflix and Torque Pro app to monitor the vitals of the truck. I recommend it
