Metra Launches Aküstik Smart Multimedia Receiver and Vehicle Integration Line at SEMA 2026
Three receiver formats, vehicle-specific interfaces, harnesses, and exclusive dash kits create a complete new source-unit program for the mobile electronics channel.
HOLLY HILL, FLA. — Metra Electronics will introduce Akustik, a brand-new line of smart multimedia receivers and vehicle-specific installation solutions, at the 2026 SEMA Show. The launch combines three receiver formats with a broad assortment of radio interfaces, extension and power harnesses, exclusive radio-specific dash kits, and universal mounting adapters. Together, these products give sales and installation partners a coordinated path from product selection to the finished dashboard.
The launch lineup offers 9-inch and 10.1-inch touchscreen formats, including fixed-display, floating-screen, and vehicle-specific mounting options. All three Akustik receivers support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto via wired or wireless connections and include Bluetooth wireless technology, AM/FM radio, camera inputs, steering wheel audio control readiness, and built-in sound-tuning capabilities. The AK-9T is a 9-inch receiver with a 1280x720 touchscreen, shallow chassis, five-channel 4-volt RCA outputs, and a built-in amplifier delivering up to 40 watts through four channels. The AK-10.1F is a floating-screen model with a 1280x720 touchscreen, adjustable display angle, shallow single-DIN chassis, six-channel 4-volt RCA outputs, and a built-in amplifier delivering up to 50 watts through four channels.
Akustik radio interfaces are designed specifically for the new receivers and support essential factory features based on the vehicle application, which may include steering wheel audio controls, factory backup and specialty cameras, OEM USB and auxiliary inputs, factory amplifiers, safety chimes, vehicle personalization settings, and HVAC information or control. Vehicle-specific interfaces cover applications including Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and RAM 2013-2024, Ford F-Series trucks 2009-2016, Chevrolet and GMC 2014-2020, Honda Civic 2022-2024 and a range of Toyota models. Universal power harnesses support the receivers, and the launch also includes vehicle-specific dash kits engineered exclusively for the AK-9T and AK-10T, plus universal mounting adapters.
Metra will preview the complete Akustik lineup during the 2026 SEMA Show at booth #10439 in the North Hall. Product availability and ordering information will be announced at a later date. Visit www.metraonline.com/akustik for the latest Akustik product information.
