Would be interesting to see what the speed difference is and any other "improvements."

Thanks!
Here is the speed test video, unlisted:

okay.. it looks like we need to pre-open the apps in the background. then it'll be speedy. Good.
I feel like this question was answered previously, but is usb tethering possible? I don't want to open a cell phone hotspot every time I get in the car. USB tethering happens automatically when I plug in the wire.

One more.. we can save the HERE maps in the SD card correct? Since the US map takes up 5GB of data, i figured placing it in the limited system storage isn't going to work.

Definitely seems to perform far better than my VL1.

I don't think it is supported. At least I haven't got it working. I agreed hotspot is annoying for multiple reasons. Grom should make this a priority.

@ gromaudio Still waiting for a demo on a 2013+ LS. Any chance I can get that video? Seeing as how product is supposed to have first ship at the end of this week, I would think that you have it built by now. This is my third request. Would ideally like to see what I've ordered and paid for before it ships. Thanks!

The product is the same across the compatibility list of the same model.
https://gromaudio.com/store/vline/grom-vl2-lex7.html

Compatible with:
Lexus CT 200H 2013-2013 (Navi)
Lexus ES 300h/350 2013-2014 (Navi)
Lexus GS 350/430/450H/460 2013-2014 (Navi)
Lexus LS 460/600hl 2013-2014 (Navi)
Lexus RX 350/450H 2013-2015 (Navi)

We have videos with similar stereos, operation of VLine on your vehicle is similar. Is there anything specific you want us to show?



The videos feature VLine VL2 that we will start shipping end of this week.

this isnt a VL2 as they stated in the title of the Youtube video. look at the version on the startup screen when it booting up in the video. it CLEARLY states VL1 on the boot up screen.. what joke...
