Apple CarPlay

[Arthur]

Anyone know when Chevy will update the MyLink platform to support Apple CarPlay, just like they showed at WWDC last year...

It would also be nice if Chevy and Apple allow Bluetooth for Bringgo rather than USB.

I actually spoke to someone at Chevy, they said they don't have near term plans to release carplay.

Announced yesterday (I believe):

http://www.engadget.com/2015/05/27/chevrolet-apple-carplay-android-auto/

Would love to know if this is something 2014/2015 Spark EV owners will be able to add retroactively to our 7" systems...

 

[Arthur]

Doubtful, they specifically said its for 2016 and beyond with no backwards compatibility. Sucks! I just leased my spark 2weeks ago.

 

[Arktctr]

Didn't catch the "non backwards compatible" part...oh well...

I don't see Spark EV on that list....drat

My salesman claims that the 2016 Spark EV is unchanged from the 2015, and there will be no CarPlay on the 2016.

I leased a spark ev recently, dealer said no carplay/android auto updates. Hope he is wrong.
