Pioneer Demos Latest CarPlay-Enabled Aftermarket Receiver at Paris Auto Show

Earlier today, Pioneer kicked off the Paris Motor Show with the announcement it was making CarPlay available (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/10/02/pioneer-carplay-now-available/) to select existing car audio receivers. The manufacturer also was present at the event showcasing CarPlay on its just-announced AppRadio 4 smartphone receiver (http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/AppRadio/AppRadio+4+(SPH-DA120)) in an exhibit that was recorded by French blog Mac4Ever (http://www.mac4ever.com/dossiers/94420_en-direct-du-mondial-de-l-auto-pioneer-presente-carplay-en-exclusivite-preview-video).

 At a suggested retail price of $600, the new AppRadio 4 (SPH-DA120) is positioned as the lowest-cost CarPlay system from Pioneer and ships with built-in support for CarPlay and Siri Eyes Free to provide on-dash and hands-free navigation, messaging and more. The AppRadio 4 CarPlay demo (http://youtu.be/kD-Xu1N01DQ) is only a minute long, but it shows decent responsiveness of the Apple-driven interface on the receiver's touchscreen display.

 Pioneer is among the first car audio manufacturers to add CarPlay support (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/04/15/pioneer-carplay-aftermarket/) to aftermarket car receivers, allowing users to install the Apple technology into their existing cars. CarPlay also will debut (https://www.apple.com/ios/carplay/) in new automobile models from a variety of automobile makers such as Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, BMW, Ford, Hyundai, GM, Honda and others.
