Car Thing isn’t necessarily a formal introduction into the hardware market – it’s more so an experimental interface meant to give users a superior listening experience in their vehicles. The company is calling the device a limited edition, and that’s for good reason. The device acts like a infotainment center for your car that exclusively runs Spotify and gives you access to the music streaming service’s entire catalog of content. You can also swipe to browse further or skip, or tap to play.Spotify has unveiled Car Thing, its first attempt at the hardware market. Much like many car infotainment systems, Car Thing is interactive, allowing you to view and navigate your Spotify library using the touch screen and to view results from voice search.

View the Touchscreen Display to See What's Playing Use the dial to browse, select, play, or pause, and discover the audio you're looking for with ease and speed. You probably know where to find the music and podcasts you want to listen to, so, by using the dial, you can quickly curate the playlist you need to get you wherever you're headed. If you're a bit old school and prefer to select the type of audio you want to listen to manually, or if you simply want to be more hands-on and navigate your Spotify library yourself, try using the dial instead of voice control. Use the Dial for a Hands-on Way to Navigate Songs For example, 'Hey Spotify, play my favorites,' or 'Hey Spotify, shuffle today's top hits.' Spotify has ensured that Car Thing will be able to hear what you're saying, even when your volume is high or your windows down, by placing four microphones along the top of the device.
