# Retrofit Modern Infotainment Systems Jaguar and Land Rover Can Be Outfitted with New Systems By Justin Lam | Published 2018-09-12 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-infotainment-systems References: [digitaltrends](https://www.digitaltrends.com/cars/jaguar-land-rover-classic-car-infotainment-systems/#/4) & [driving](https://driving.ca/land-rover/auto-news/news/jaguar-will-retrofit-modern-infotainment-systems-in-your-classic-car) In an attempt to infuse classic cars with some tech, Jaguar [Land Rover](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/overfinch-heritage-defender) now offer modern infotainment systems that can be retrofitted to classic cars. These new modern infotainment systems come equipped with Bluetooth, navigation with both 2D or 3D maps, digital radio, and both AM and FM radio stations. All of this is controlled through a 3.5-inch touchscreen and analog knobs. Not only do these modern infotainment systems fit organically and aesthetically with the vehicles, but they are also compatible with the limited tech available in classic [Land Rovers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jaguar-and-land-rover-vehicles). This compatibility essentially requires the new systems to work alongside the cars using older negative earth electronics. The modern infotainment systems are available in black or chrome finishes for [Jaguars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jaguar-xk) or brushed aluminum for Land Rovers.
