Rumour: More Maruti cars to get SmartPlay infotainment system

Maruti Suzuki introduced the SmartPlay infotainment system in the market when it launched the Z+ trim level of the Ciaz sedan. Now, according to media reports, the company is gearing up to equip more cars in its line-up with this system.

The Ertiga MPV, which is set to receive a facelift in a couple of months, is likely to be the next car to sport the SmartPlay infotainment system. Later in the year, the Swift hatchback and Dzire compact sedan are also likely to get it. Upcoming cars like the SX4 S-Cross cross hatch, YBA compact SUV and YRA hatchback are also likely to be fitted with the system. Like the Ciaz, all these vehicles are expected to get a Z+ trim level.

The SmartPlay system features a 7-inch touchscreen display, satellite navigation with voice commands, voice recognition and USB, AUX and Bluetooth connectivity. Up to 10 smartphones can be paired with the system and there is a display for the dial pad, phonebook and call logs. The system can be controlled remotely by using a Smartphone. Additionally, the screen doubles up as a display for the car's rear-view camera.
