Motorola’s MA2 wireless Android Auto adapter is now listed on Amazon in the US at $69.99. That is about $30 more than the $39.95 US price Motorola Sound gave Android Authority in June, as 9to5Google reported at the time.
Delivery is the other catch. When we checked the listing on November 11 (US time), Amazon quoted free delivery between December 19 and January 5. Its fastest option still showed December 15 to 30. In June, Motorola Sound had said stock would be ready in time for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Motorola MA2 price and availability
The Motorola Sound MA2 sells on Amazon US for $69.99. That matches the price 9to5Google reported when it spotted the launch.
The $39.95 figure was a pre-launch statement, not a price anyone was ever charged. Still, buyers who waited for a roughly $40 adapter will now pay about $30 more. If you need one for a holiday road trip, check Amazon’s delivery estimate before ordering, since those dates can shift.
What the MA2 does
The MA2 connects your phone to Android Auto in the car without a cable. Its main addition is multipoint. You can pair two phones and switch between drivers with the press of a button.
- Wireless: 5GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth auto-reconnect
- Multipoint: two paired phones, button to switch phones or enter pairing mode
- Connection: modular USB-C or USB-A, with short USB-C to USB-C and USB-A to USB-C cables in the box
- Controls: physical on/off switch
- Software: updates delivered through the Android Auto app, per Motorola
Motorola Sound markets the MA2 as engineered by Google using licensed bridge technology. That is the company’s claim, and we haven’t tested the adapter’s connection quality ourselves.
Wireless Android Auto also needs a compatible phone with an active data plan, according to Motorola’s product page. Older phones face another limit, since wired Android Auto now needs Android 11.
