I wonder if we will be seeing this in our cars anytime soon

Siri eyesfree isn't even support for 3IS I don't think we will get this...

Possibly we may. At the bottom of the page it shows coming to Toyota Vehicles soon, and it is compatible with **** based controls

finally! why reinvent the wheel when iOS does it so well. Finally a partnership that makes sense...

looks cool good idea apple, but doubt it will be completable

Toyota has been heavily invested in Linux. It won't be an over night switch. The bigger the org the longer it takes to adopt or change the tech.

that's really cool. its like every gadget out there, as soon as you purchase one, another new gadget comes out.

But it does say Toyota, and Lexus is owned by Toyota...

Look at how both Honda and Acura are shown. I don't think Lexus will have carplay...

It is supported from 2015. Mine has it

You guys should look into AGL (Automotive Grade Linux) which Lexus decided to debut in the IS model.

It is completely open source which means you are allowed to modify it anyway you like. What is needed is someone with a Linux coding background, because you can develop apps/addon's for it.

Personally, I could see a version of KODI being modded (there are already Linux based versions) that could integrate far better and provide a much better experience then CarPlay.

I am half tempted to plug in a USB keyboard to one of the USB ports and see if it can be rooted.

Am i the only one that thinks apple car play is useless? This is coming from someone who has had an iPhone for the last 6 years and use nothing but apple computers.

brendanf

Yeah I agree. My opinion is people should be focused on driving not their infotainment system. Emails and text messages can wait.

But overall I hate apple and their products.
