I've listen to the video a couple time now, I cant tell if he's saying it will be an up on all 2018 Mazda "CX" or "6" touring trim level and above
If all 2018 get updated, the same method should be do-able for 2017 as well. Firmware has been same, and available for self install (even if not official).
From Mazda Canada Website:
"During the press conference, Mazda also announced the addition of Apple CarPlay™ and Android™ Auto support to its vehicle line-up. In Canada, these mobile device connectivity technologies will first be offered in the 2019 CX‑9 launching this summer, and then rolled out across the entire model line-up thereafter. In addition, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto will be available as a Genuine Mazda Accessory retrofit for MAZDA CONNECT systems starting this fall."

Nice to see something in print, but listening again to the announcement, that was not what he said. At 7:10 he talks about the new 6 having it, and all 2018 6 Touring and above would get it this summer:

What he said may have been for USA only but Canada's link says differently.
Anyways unless Mazda Canada takes their link down, I'd rather go with what is in writing rather that what is said verbally
I agree. And doesn't canada use the same NA firmware as USA? If so, then there should be no technical limitation in NA.

That’s almost certainly the case.
Then maybe Mazda Canada jumped the gun by releasing more information then they should have
so who is asking the US offices?
Ok, raise your hand 15, 16, 17 owners that would trade your car in for an 18 today because of AA or ACP.Most likely, they will add AA, to that new Mazda 3.
They have to make people, to buy there new cars.
If they add it to the older ones, those people, won't be buying anytime soon another car.
Where's Yrwie when you need him? [emoji4]I think everyone is waiting for everyone else to ask
