Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.     When it comes to in vehicle technology…Pioneer is out front again with its new line up of NEX receivers… with Amazon Alexa built in.   VP of Marketing Ted Cardenas…says the technology may be even more useful in the car than it is in the home…

“So as you’re driving you can simply ask Alexa to control the actual Pioneer radio…change sources…change from Bluetooth to radio or play specific music from Amazon Music or Pandora or TuneIn, even read you a book.  And then of course, what’s really cool is on my commute, that’s when I always think of things I need to add to our shopping list.”

And the voice commands will work when it comes to making calls as well.   You can learn more at www.pioneerelectronics.com/alexa.
