what is subaru starlink

Subaru STARLINK is the brand’s infotainment and connected-services platform—the bit that makes your dash do more than glare at you.

It wrangles the touchscreen, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, voice control, and (on some trims) navigation and apps.

In certain models and markets, STARLINK also adds telematics like automatic collision notification, SOS assistance, and remote lock/start via a smartphone app—availability varies in Australia.

Think of it as the car’s smartphone hub and concierge, so long as you supply the data and a smidge of patience.
