Announced in 2022 and promised to be released in 2024 new generation CarPlayis still eagerly awaited. Although we have entered the first day of 2025, a vehicle with Apple’s ambitious technology is not on the horizon. Apple’s CarPlay page still says “Its future in 2024.” This stated update has not shown any tangible improvement so far.

New CarPlay stuck on the road

The only innovation we have seen so far is the appearance of features such as navigation information on the dashboard in some models of brands such as Polestar, Porsche and Lincoln. For example, even vehicles with large screens such as the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus are far from offering the experience that includes the dashboard that Apple dreams of.

Porsche and Aston Martin announced that they will integrate the new CarPlay into their vehicles, but both brands refrain from announcing a clear timetable for when this update will be available. On the other hand, many automobile manufacturers, which are stated to receive Apple’s support, still have an uncertain attitude towards the software. Some even closed the door to this integration with harsher language. For example, Mercedes-Benz Ola Källenius, CEO of Apple that they won’t let him control all the screens. stated clearly. Companies like General Motors (GM) and Rivian are taking a stance against not only Apple’s CarPlay but also Google’s Android Auto software.

Apple has a vision of disrupting an industry over which it has limited influence. The company admittedly has a better track record of doing this than most, given its successes in the music and telecom industries, but the automotive industry seems like a tough nut to crack in many ways.

While it’s clear that CarPlay is a powerful platform for infotainment systems, it’s less of a revolution and more of an inspiration for automakers to take the software much more seriously. In addition, automobile manufacturers do not want to hand over all controls of the screens in the vehicle to someone else.
