Motorola's new MA2 wireless Android Auto adapter is now on sale in the US on Amazon. The price is $69.99, not the $39.95 Motorola first promised. That is about $30 more than expected.

What it is

Android Auto shows your phone's maps, music and messages on your car's screen. An adapter like this one lets your phone connect without a cable. Many brands sell them. Motorola says the MA2 is the only one engineered by Google. It was first announced in March 2026.

The box includes both USB-C and USB-A cables, so it should fit more types of car ports. The source did not list the hardware upgrades over the older MA1, so those are not covered here.

Price and shipping

The older MA1 launched at nearly $100 and has been out of stock for months. At $69.99, the MA2 is cheaper than that, though not by as much as hoped. The price was not a total surprise, since a Motorola Sound website listing has shown it for months.

Amazon currently shows delivery in mid to late December. That estimate may change, because new products often show wrong dates in the first days. Buyers in some other regions have been able to get the device for weeks or even months.

What is not known yet

No hands-on testing has been published. 9to5Google says it has placed an order and plans to cover it, so real-world performance is still unknown.

The takeaway

The MA2 costs $69.99 on Amazon, so decide if Google-backed wireless Android Auto is worth that, and expect delivery around mid to late December.
