Just figured out how to get voice activated calls and other things on my 2016. Just set up 'Hey Siri' on your iPhone 6. This allows you to access Suri by just saying 'Hey Siri'. Next, plug phone into the USB port. If your phone is synced with the car, just say 'Hey Siri, call 'someone in your phone book'. That's it. Call is made. Probably play songs and look up things too.

On songs, no, unless you've already switched the music source to the phone on the car's touch screen first.

I have been using Siri for years in cars to make phone calls from my address book, but have been just holding the home button down to wake Siri up.

So if I understand correctly, you can have the sound source on radio, and it will switch the source to your iTunes music via Siri? If so, cool . . . will have to give that a try, although if so, it's probably a new feature on the new '16 infotainment system.
