    Wireless CarPlay will be an important feature for us when purchasing our next new car, but CarPlay Ultra, not so much. Much of CarPlay Ultra just seems superfluous.

    Ah yes, Apple wanting to test what could be a practical os/interface for vehicles, but inside of an impractical vehicle.

    That’s about on par for Apple.

    They are testing car that average person can’t afford. I am getting sick of Apple

    • @Neojhun

      July 2, 2025 at 9:24 am

      Irony is these kind of legacy luxury car brands do not have the latest infotainment system hardware. Especially Aston Martin until recently was just trying to get head units from anyone including old Mercedes ones. Soon there will be similar setups in Renault, Volvo, Hyundai and Kia attainable cars. This is not a high end expensive technology.

      Not very many car manufacturers will let Apple take over their dashboard, regular CarPlay isn’t even available in the new chevrolet’s or at all in the tesla vehicles, that one reason I would never even consider buying one of those vehicles.

    • @BruceLeeRoy26

      July 2, 2025 at 3:46 pm

      It’s coming to brands like Ford and Volvo, do you just hate Apple because everyone else says to or are you actually forming your opinion?

    • @mikeyellow

      July 2, 2025 at 7:11 pm

      @@BruceLeeRoy26 its my opinion as loyal customer of Apple. they not targeting the real users, like me who’s changing phone every year and buying their products..

    What happens to the dash on the Aston Martin if you use an android phone? It must have some kind of stock dash.

    • @Jonny_O

      July 2, 2025 at 2:01 pm

      Is it? Tesla’s infotainment stack is light-years ahead of anything coming out of the legacy car makers but it is by no means perfect. And Tesla’s hatred of physical buttons isn’t ideal.

      Thank you!!! So annoying. Even a $80k car, why the heck do the infotainment systems just suck. Maybe I am looking at all the wrong vehicles

      imagine making a $250,000 car.. and then spending less money on all of the dashboard electronics (BT receiver, touch screen, CPU, etc) than you do on.. like the leather used to wrap the steering wheel. why are the execs at legacy car manufacturers so… bad at their job?

    This may be the third review of Apple CarPlay Ultra that I’ve seen, and still nobody compares it to the OG Android Automotive. I’m assuming Apple’s newer version is better in some ways, but are you guys not allowed to compare the two?

    Apples Point of Interest integration in AppleMaps is the one big reason why GoogleMaps will always succeed 😅 it‘s do bad and I really don‘t know why they don‘t adjust it (for example with making it more attractive to review POIs or with integrating an option to comment with text on how good or bad POIs are) 👆🏻
