The Echo Auto integrates with your favorite music streaming services such as Amazon Music, Spotify, or even Apple Music.

If you're worried about where you'll actually mount the Echo Auto in your car, you can put those concerns to rest. Amazon includes a car vent mount with the Echo Auto, so you can just slap it in your car and get on the road. The setup process couldn't be easier, and having Alexa help you in your travels can be truly invaluable.

In our review of the Echo Auto, we came to the following conclusion:

After two years out in the wild, the Echo Auto has improved from its dismal debut. It boasts excellent microphones, Alexa responds quickly, and it can do 95% of what you want an in-car infotainment system to do.

Of course, if you already have a car infotainment system powered by Android Auto, the Echo Auto won't be of much use. But if you're still using an older infotainment system, then the Echo Auto can help bring your car into the 21st century.
