Motorola MA2 wireless Android Auto adapter is now available, but at nearly twice the price

After first appearing months ago, the Motorola MA2 wireless Android Auto adapter is officially available for purchase in the US, but at a much higher price than expected. Motorola MA2 at Amazon While there’s a sea of wireless Android Auto adapters on the market today, the Motorola MA1 captured the attention of many as it was backed by Google directly. That was a double-edged sword, as we mentioned in our review, but it still got the job done. Now, it’s getting a sequel in MA2. This new adapter was first announced way back in March 2026, bringing with it some welcome upgrades to the hardware including: Physical on/off switch Multipoint connectivity for pairing multiple phones Button for switching paired phones, pairing mode Modular USB-C/USB-A connection You’ll also get both USB-C and USB-A cables in the box with the adapter, and it’s reiterated that the thing that makes this wireless Android Auto adapter stand out is that it’s the “only one engineered by Google.” The new device is now available on Amazon for $69.99, and fills a gap as Motorola MA1 has been out of stock for months now. Where MA1 launched at nearly $100, MA2 is a much more reasonable price. That said, it’s not as cheap as we were expecting Motorola MA2’s price was originally said to be $39.95, but the final price is $69.99 on Amazon. That price isn’t a complete surprise, as a listing on the Motorola Sound website has shown that price for months. Still, it’s a shame to see that the $40~ price promised won’t actually happen, and it’s equally frustrating that it effectively costs twice as much as it was said to. As for shipping times, Motorola MA2 on Amazon is currently showing mid-late December delivery. That may vary based on your location and could end up being delivered early, too. It’s not uncommon for shipping timelines on new products to be incorrect for the first few days, and MA2 quite literally went on sale today as far as we can tell. That’s for the US, at least, as some users in other regions have been able to purchase the device for weeks, even months. Are you picking up Motorola MA2?
