The O CAR – The First Car Radio Specially Built for the iPhone – Now Available in the USA

Aug. 26, 2011 - PRLog -- Tampa Bay, FL - Like the idea of listening to your iPhone® in your car, but looking for something better than a Bluetooth™ adapter, FM transmitter or audio AUX cable? Look no further than the O CAR – a radio deck by Oxygen Audio that turns your iPhone itself into your car stereo.

Originally introduced at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show,  the O CAR allows you to control standard car stereo functions like volume and tuning, as well as browse and play your iTunes® library and internet radio station apps. Additionally, the O CAR lets you view and interface GPS navigation, maps and just about any other communication or navigation feature your iPhone has. Even better, the O CAR also offers hands-free calling and battery charging while on the go.  

Available as of late July, the Oxygen Audio O CAR can be found at car audio specialty stores and retailers in the US at a MSRP of $299.95.

Using the O CAR is as simple as using the iPhone itself. Simply click your device into the O CAR dock/charger and adjust the cradle for landscape or portrait use. At this point, your device becomes the faceplace of your car stereo and is ready for use.  A self-launching app allows you to tune-in radio stations or control your stereo volume via the iPhone screen, and you can easily access all tracks, playlists, and apps with a touch of the screen.

The O CAR features a built-in RDS-enabled AM/FM tuner, Bluetooth connectivity and a 4-channel, 55-watt amp that links to a vehicle’s factory or aftermarket speakers for outstanding sound quality and bass response.

The Oxygen Audio O CAR is imported and distributed exclusively by AAMP of America in the USA. For more information, please visit http://www.ocarusa.com.
