For owners of Dacia models (Sandero, Logan, Duster, Jogger) or entry-level Renault vehicles equipped with the Media Nav Evolution 9.1.3 infotainment system, the desire to use Android Auto is a common one. Unlike the higher-end "Easy Link" systems, the Evolution 9.1.3 requires a specific, hands-on approach to mirror your Android smartphone.
You cannot "update" your way to Android Auto. You must invest in an external emulator. Choose a reputable MMI box from a seller with Dacia/Renault-specific support, set aside 90 minutes for installation, and enjoy the Google ecosystem on your 8-inch screen. Always verify your system firmware version (Settings → System Information → Software Version). 9.1.3 refers to the hardware revision; the software version may be "9.1.21.xxx." The method above works across all sub-revisions of 9.1.3.
This write-up explains the capabilities, the hard truth about factory support, and the practical solutions to get Google Maps, Waze, and Spotify on that 8-inch touchscreen. First, a critical clarification: The factory version of Media Nav Evolution 9.1.3 does not include native Android Auto or Apple CarPlay.
