First cars with next-generation CarPlay officially announced
Apple has officially made good on its . The first cars with support for next-generation CarPlay have (sort of) been announced. As reported by , Porsche and Aston Martin will be the first automakers to support next-generation CarPlay starting in 2024. Porsche and Aston Martin’s implementation of next-generation CarPlay will span multiple in-car screens, showing CarPlay’s iconic grid of apps, now playing information, Apple Maps integration, and more. CarPlay also controls the gauge cluster, showing the speedometer and other details. Marco Mattiacci, Global Chief Brand and Commercial Officer at Aston Martin said in a statement: At Aston Martin we strive for excellence and performance and this was the key reason we chose to partner with Apple on the next generation of CarPlay. The integration of the latest state-of-the-art technology combined with a bespoke intuitive interface is paramount to creating the ultimate Aston Martin customer experience. We look forward to sharing more as we work together with Apple to bring the next generation of CarPlay to Aston Martins in 2024. Michael Mauer, Porsche’s Vice President of Style, said: We have long been committed to providing Porsche owners with the brand and sporty driving experience synonymous with the Porsche. In addition to the sports car itself, digital offerings that are perfectly tailored to our customers are becoming increasingly important to the overall driving experience. We recently brought the My Porsche app to CarPlay to provide drivers with even easier access to car functionality, and in the future we will be adding support for the next generation of CarPlay to Porsche models. We look forward to delivering an experience that adds the personal touch of a driver’s iPhone to the exclusivity of a Porsche. But while today’s news is the first update we’ve gotten on next-generation CarPlay since WWDC 2022, there are still a slew of unanswered questions. First, we don’t know which specific models of Porsche and Aston Martin cars will support next-generation CarPlay. We also have no details on whether next-generation CarPlay will come to existing Porsche and Aston Martin cars, or if it will be exclusive to new models.
