Audi

As of early 2021, select Audi vehicles offer the full Alexa experience, with the assistant listening to your voice commands and working in the car just as it does at home. Alexa first appeared on Audi's electric e-tron SUV, but has since been rolled out to several of the company's larger and more premium 2019 and 2020 model year vehicles. These include:

• A6 2020+
• A7 2020+
• A8 2020+
• e-tron 2019+
• Q3 2020+
• Q7 2020+
• Q8 2020+

BMW

In 2018, BMW showed off how it would integrate Alexa with its car infotainment system. But then, in early 2019, it demonstrated a voice assistant of its own, summoned by saying 'Hey BMW'. You could even change the name to anything you like. It was a strange move from the company to first invest in Alexa integration, then produce an assistant of its own.

But now the situation is simpler, and Alexa integration is offered on a range of BMW vehicles from model year 2018 onwards. The company has published a video here to show how to set everything up, which requires the Alexa smartphone app, and adjusting settings on the car's own iDrive infotainment system. After that, Alexa works with the car's existing voice command button on the steering wheel.

As for January 2021, Alexa is offered on the following BMW cars:

• X1 2018+
• X2 2018+
• i3 2018+
• 2 Series 2018+
• 4 Series 2018+
• X3 M 2018+
• X4 M 2018+
• i8 2018+

Are the windows closed and doors locked?) by speaking to Alexa on a device like an Echo speaker, but does not mean the vehicle has its own Alexa to interact with.
