I found the reason for the extra chrome strip next to the Toyota logo on the 2020.
It allows you to easily see which dealers are claiming to have a 2020 but are actually showing photos of a 2019.
For example, this one, which is supposedly a 2020 Limited:

Looks like they have a 2020 VIN, but the photos are definitely of a 2019.

I’ve used it in rental vehicles when traveling. I know a lot of folks don’t like Apple Maps, but I like it it and it integrates well with my Apple Watch — nice to have it tap me when it’s time to turn. One thing it offers that’s better than the built-in Toyota’s nav (at least on my 2015): Apple Maps tells you which lane it recommends based on upcoming turns. You can also use Google Maps and Waze, if you want.
Personally, I’d anticipate it being much more useful to me if it were wireless (vs. having to plug your phone in to use it), but I’ve read some terrible review’s of BMW’s wireless CarPlay implementation. Maybe that’s why most of the other implementations are wired only.
