UPDATE<\/p>\n

CarPlay Ultra, the next generation of CarPlay, begins rolling out today<\/p>\n

CarPlay Ultra brings the best of iPhone and the best of the car together for a deeply integrated experience, beginning with Aston\u00a0Martin vehicles<\/p>\n

Starting today, CarPlay Ultra, the next generation of CarPlay, is available with new Aston Martin<\/a> vehicle orders in the U.S. and Canada, and will be available for existing models that feature the brand\u2019s next-generation infotainment system through a software update in the coming weeks. CarPlay Ultra builds on the capabilities of CarPlay and provides the ultimate in-car experience by deeply integrating with the vehicle to deliver the best of iPhone and the best of the car. It provides information for all of the driver\u2019s screens, including real-time content and gauges in the instrument cluster, while reflecting the automaker\u2019s look and feel and offering drivers a customizable experience. Many other automakers around the world are working to bring CarPlay Ultra to drivers, including newly committed brands Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis.<\/p>\n

\u201ciPhone users love CarPlay, and it has transformed how people connect with their vehicles. With CarPlay Ultra, together with automakers, we are reimagining the in-car experience, making it even more unified and consistent,\u201d said Bob Borchers, Apple\u2019s vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. \u201cThis next generation of CarPlay gives drivers a smarter, safer way to use their iPhone in the car, while deeply integrating with the car\u2019s systems and showcasing the unique look and feel of each automaker. We are excited to kick off the rollout of CarPlay Ultra with Aston Martin \u2014 and this is just the beginning, with more automakers on the way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Deeper Integration Than Ever Before<\/strong><\/p>\n

CarPlay Ultra provides content for all the driver\u2019s screens, including the instrument cluster, with dynamic and beautiful options for the speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, temperature gauge, and more, bringing a consistent look and feel to the entire driving experience. Drivers can choose to show information from their iPhone, like maps and media, along with information that comes from the car, such as advanced driver assistance systems and tire pressure, right in the instrument cluster.<\/p>\n

Drivers can also use onscreen controls, physical buttons, or Siri to manage both standard vehicle functions like the car\u2019s radio and climate, as well as advanced, vehicle-specific features and controls like audio system configurations or performance settings, right from CarPlay, giving them a more fluid and seamless experience. CarPlay Ultra also introduces widgets powered by iPhone that perfectly fit the car\u2019s screen or gauge cluster to provide information at a glance.<\/p>\n

A Design Unique to Each Automaker<\/strong><\/p>\n

CarPlay Ultra allows automakers to express their distinct design philosophy with the look and feel their customers expect. Custom themes are crafted in close collaboration between Apple and the automaker\u2019s design team, resulting in experiences that feel tailor-made for each vehicle. Drivers can also personalize the colors and wallpapers of themes to match their individual tastes.<\/p>\n

\u201cAston Martin is delighted to have collaborated with Apple and to be first to launch CarPlay Ultra,\u201d said Adrian Hallmark, Aston Martin\u2019s CEO. \u201cAs a brand, our focus on world-leading performance goes beyond the traditional attributes associated with powertrains, dynamic performance, and craftsmanship. The integration of CarPlay Ultra is a clear example of the dedication to collaborate with the best companies in the world to bring unique experiences and in-vehicle capabilities to our customers. Building on our in-house state-of-the-art infotainment system, CarPlay Ultra will provide additional functionality and personalization opportunities, which place Aston Martin at the forefront of infotainment in the sector.\u201d<\/p>\n

CarPlay Ultra joins CarPlay, which is beloved by drivers around the world and has fundamentally changed the way people interact with their vehicles, providing a safer, smarter way to use iPhone in the car. And just like with CarPlay, rigorous privacy measures built into iPhone apply to CarPlay Ultra.<\/p>\n
