CarPlay ABSOLUTELY changes car buying behaviour, at least in some instances.
In one case I heard of, a young lady bought a car with CarPlay, and when it didn't work, she tried to make the dealership buy it back under a lemon law. The dealership made Car Play work, and she kept the car.
- Raed667 10y agoCarPlay will change my buying behavior! If I want to buy a car (used or new) and find out that it has CarPlay I will go back because I refuse to buy an iPhone and it wont work with my Android so what's the point? Edit: why so many down votes?
- csours 10y agoMost cars with CarPlay also have Android Auto.
- Raed667 10y agoCarPlay is basically an authentication and media streaming station, while Android Auto is basically AndroidOs. They are very different in terms of architecture and wouldn't be surprised to see manufacturers stick with one or another to reduce cost.
- csours 10y agoGM offers both wherever it offers one; I cannot speak for other OEMs. (I work for GM)
- fnord123 10y ago>I will double down because I refuse to buy an iPhone Doubling down is a term from black jack where you double your bet because you think you have a good chance of winning. So in this case, you will offer double the money to buy a car because it has a feature you don't want?
- Raed667 10y agoThanks for clearing that up for me. English is my 3rd language and I must have picked up that idiomatic expression in the wrong context.
- JustSomeNobody 10y agoIndeed! I don't want it or the Android one. Even when it comes to Apple, I cannot be assured that it will even work in 4 years much less the 8 or 10 that I usually keep my cars.
- csours 10y agoCars with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay still have the automaker's UI, whatever that may be, or you can buy third party "radios" that replace the head unit.
