En een persbericht:We have not announced any plans for an aftermarket solution for Apple CarPlay. While I cannot reveal any potential future products, I can say that there are major roadblocks for this, both from a technical as well as from a usability point-of-view.
GENEVA – 04 March 2014/PRNewswire/— Volvo Car Group today announced that the all new Volvo XC90 will offer Apple CarPlay, the smarter, safer, more fun way to use iPhone in the car.
Volvo drivers simply connect their iPhone in the car with the Lightning connector and Volvo’s on-board touch screen display allows them to intuitively access the iPhone apps they want to use in the car, such as Phone, Maps, Music and Messages, all seamlessly integrated and instantly available.
“Apple’s stunning and intuitive user interface perfectly complements Volvo’s Scandinavian design approach and our focus on fluid functionality,” says Volvo Car Group President and CEO Håkan Samuelsson. “With the wholly-integrated user experience in our large portrait-oriented touch screen, coupled with the obvious driver safety benefits of an advanced voice control system like Siri, iPhone users will feel completely at home in a new Volvo XC90.”
Apple CarPlay is available for iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c and iPhone 5 running the latest version of Apple’s iOS operating system. Apple CarPlay will be available in forthcoming Volvo models based on the new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA), starting with the all-new Volvo XC90 later in 2014.
