HUDWAY Drive is a more advanced version of portable HUD if compared to HUDWAY Cast. HUDWAY Drive addresses most of the issues the users of earlier HUDWAY devices faced, and we've been striving to make it truly a head-up display for everyday commute.

The key differences are:
— Improved connectivity: HUDWAY Drive connects to the smartphone via regular Bluetooth, which is why you once you have paired the two once, every next time HUDWAY Drive will connect to your smartphone automaticaly, even when the latter stays in your pocket.
— Slimmer design: HUDWAY Drive uses an extra slim and flexible mount which follows the curves of your dash and looks integral to the vehicle interior. And — it now fits in the vehicles where there's very little space between the dash and the windshield (like in some BMW models).
— Versatile mount: HUDWAY Drive affixes to the mount using a maget lock, and the power cable plugs in the mount not n the the device, which is why it's now easier to take the device off and place it back. Additionally, we design custom mounts for a range of models even more native look on your dash. We're starting with custom mounts for Tesla Model 3, Ford F-150, and plan to add more shortly.
— Video input: For those using additional cameras in their vehicles, HUDWAY Drive offers a video input port (CVBS). Here's how you can integrate a night vision camera or a rear view camera with the HUD device.
— Reliable software: By default, HUDWAY Drive uses navigation and routes provided by MapBox. Alternatively, you can still use HUDWAY Go if you choose to.

On the whole, HUDWAY Drive is superior to HUDWAY Cast in terms of functionality, design and usability.

No, HUDWAY Drive will not work without a smartphone. It requires a smartphone running iOS 10 or later or Android 6 or later to operate. HUDWAY Drive has no bulit-in GPS chip, which is why all location data must come either from a connected smartphone, or from an OBD II Bluetooth scanner (available for purchase as an add-on).

HUDWAY Drive needs to be mounted on the dash in front of driver's eyes otherwise the driver will be unable to see the projection.

Make sure there's enough space between the dash and windshield, and there is a cigarette lighter receptacle available to plug in the power cable.
