GM was listed as a CarPlay partner when the technology
was announced in early 2014, but the company was not expected to incorporate CarPlay into its automobiles right away. Almost one year after the announcement, GM appears to finally be bringing CarPlay to its automobile lineup starting with the 2016 Volt, although the new model is not expected to go on sale to the public until the second half of this year.
Chevrolet has previously been involved in
CarPlay demonstrations, but the upcoming second-generation Volt looks to the be first production vehicle with the feature built-in.
GM's CarPlay unveiling follows similar CarPlay announcements from
Volkswagen and
Hyundai, both of which used CES to showcase their CarPlay-enabled in-dash entertainment systems. CarPlay also is expanding in the aftermarket automobile receiver market with
Parrot, Kenwood and Pioneer recently
unveiling new CarPlay in-dash receivers.
