GM's replacement for CarPlay is due at the end of 2023, but its dealers are in the dark about when that will be and what it will do to sales when buyers figure it out.

Carplay was on a very short list of requirements for me when I bought my car a few years ago, so I totally understand this.

It was basically:

  • Is a standard
  • Has Carplay
  • (of course some other things, but those two were very high)

No car manufacturer’s in-house stuff will be as useful to me. It just won’t.

Same here after dealing with shoddy infotainment software in the past. CarPlay, AWD and preferably a manual was all it needed
