CarPlay 2.0: Is it coming or not coming?


It’s been two and a half years since Apple announced a redesign of its CarPlay iPhone vehicle integration. “CarPlay 2.0” should ensure that Apple technology is installed more deeply into the car, for example by providing control of vehicle functions and taking over the main instruments in the dashboard. This is also important for the iPhone company because it had abandoned its electric car project this year. The problem: Despite several announcements, nothing has happened so far — and probably won’t in December, even if Apple was able to recruit several partners.

A year ago, Porsche and Aston Martin came out as proponents of “next generation CarPlay”, also known as “Car Play 2.0”. But there are no real signs of implementation yet. Porsche told MacRumors this week that they were working on the current CarPlay integration – i.e. the old, standard one. Nothing will change “in the near future”.Apple just announced a timetable for arrival “in 2024” – and is still writing that happy on your website“The models will only arrive in 2024,” it still says. Since December is an unusual launch month for new vehicles, it is likely that this date will soon be changed to 2025.

When the collaboration with Porsche and Aston Martin was announced, it was stated that the goal of the project was to create “an entirely new, integrated experience that enables Apple and each individual carmaker to create the best,” As Apple’s software design chief executive Alan Dye said. Why all of this is taking so long is likely due to a combination of Apple’s ambitions and the desires of automakers.

While some carmakers fear losing control over all the critical software, Apple certainly has very specific ideas about what a “CarPlay 2.0” car should look like. It is expected that it will be continued next year also. That’s how long “CarPlay 1.0”, which is part of iOS 18, will continue to be developed.
