Hema HX-BOX GPS Navigation Module (Apple CarPlay Wired or Android Auto)

The Hema Maps GPS Navigation Module (HX-BOX) is the ultimate navigation upgrade for explorers who demand accuracy both on-road and off-road. Designed to project Hema’s detailed maps directly onto your vehicle’s infotainment screen via Android Auto or Apple CarPlay (wired), it delivers a full-featured navigation experience without replacing your factory system.

For over 40 years, Hema Maps has been Australia’s most trusted source for navigating the outback, remote tracks, and touring routes. Known for unmatched detail and accuracy, Hema’s maps are relied on by 4WD enthusiasts, caravanners, and explorers to travel with confidence. With the Hema Maps GPS Navigation Module, that same expertise is now built directly into your vehicle’s head unit, putting premium on-road and off-road navigation at your fingertips. No extra devices, no juggling screens — just the full power of Hema’s mapping on your infotainment display, guiding you wherever the road or track leads.

The HX-BOX connects via Android Auto or Apple CarPlay (wired) to display Hema’s detailed maps, delivering full-featured navigation without replacing your factory system. Tested and trusted by the Hema Map Patrol and Alpha teams, it combines advanced hardware with Australia’s most comprehensive off-road mapping to keep you confidently on track — whether you’re in the city, towing a caravan, or tackling remote terrain.

With a massive 6GB RAM and 64GB storage plus access to the Google Play store (subscription required), the HX-Box allows you to download and mirror any app to your infotainment system or wirelessly connect your phone for a traditional Android Auto / Apple CarPlay experience.
