New CarPlay Vehicles From Honda, Kia and Lincoln Debut at Detroit Auto Show

A trio of carmakers have unveiled new vehicles with CarPlay and Android Auto support at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit this month, including the 2017 Honda Ridgeline (http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/all-new-2017-honda-ridgeline-pickup-truck-makes-world-debut-at-2016-north-american-international-auto-show-300202254.html), 2017 Kia Forte5 (http://www.multivu.com/players/English/7732051-2017-kia-forte5/) and 2017 Lincoln Continental (https://media.lincoln.com/content/lincolnmedia/lna/us/en/continental.html). All three models will be available in the first half of 2016.

The 2017 Ridgeline will mark Honda's return to the North American pickup truck market, which it exited after discontinuing the mid-size sport utility truck in 2014. Meanwhile, the 2017 Forte5 and 2017 Continental will be among Kia's and Lincoln's first CarPlay models in their vehicle lineups.





Honda's 2016 Accord (http://www.macrumors.com/2015/07/23/honda-2016-accord-carplay-android-auto/) and 2016 Civic (http://www.macrumors.com/2015/09/17/2016-honda-civic-carplay-android-auto/) also feature CarPlay and Android Auto, while Kia has indicated later availability in the 2016 Optima.





Lincoln is a luxury vehicle brand under Ford, which earlier this month announced it is adding CarPlay and Android Auto to all 2017 vehicles (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/01/04/ford-carplay-android-auto-2017-sync-3/) in North America equipped with its SYNC 3 platform. CarPlay and Android Auto will also be available in 2016 Ford vehicles with SYNC 3 as an upgrade later this year.





CarPlay has finally experienced widespread adoption (http://www.macrumors.com/2015/12/01/2016-carplay-vehicles-list-us-models/) in 2016, nearly three years after being introduced as "iOS in the Car" at WWDC 2013. Toyota is one of the only major vehicle brands without a future commitment to CarPlay, although the Japanese carmaker remains listed as a CarPlay partner on Apple's website.





The trio of new vehicles have yet to be added to Apple's new CarPlay available models list (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/01/11/apple-carplay-vehicles-list/) published on its website last week.
