Tesla Testing Apple CarPlay Integration After Years of Resistance

Tesla Developing CarPlay Integration for Its Vehicles: Report

  • Tesla is testing support for Apple CarPlay in its vehicles after ongoing customer requests.
  • CarPlay allows drivers to use iPhone features directly on their vehicle’s infotainment screen.
  • The rollout of CarPlay to Tesla cars has been discussed for the coming months but is not yet confirmed.
  • Tesla CEO Elon Musk previously declined to add CarPlay, unlike most other automakers.

Tesla has begun internal testing for Apple CarPlay support in its vehicles, according to individuals familiar with the company’s plans as referenced in a recent report. The decision comes after repeated requests from customers who wanted to use Apple’s smartphone mirroring system in their cars. CarPlay enables drivers to access and control various iPhone features—such as navigation, music, and messaging—through the car’s built-in display.

Tesla has discussed introducing CarPlay in the near future, but the plan has not been finalized, according to unnamed sources referenced by the report. While most major automakers offer CarPlay compatibility, Tesla has been a prominent exception, with CEO Elon Musk having previously rejected calls to add the feature to Tesla vehicles.

CarPlay is an in-vehicle software platform developed by Apple. It allows a driver’s iPhone to be mirrored onto the car’s dashboard screen, giving access to core apps and voice controls without interacting directly with the phone.

The timeline for a wider release of CarPlay in Tesla cars remains uncertain. The company is continuing to test the system before making any official announcements regarding public availability.
