Apple said we'd get vehicle announcements tied to its "next generation" of wireless CarPlay by the end ofand today it delivered mockups of the dashboard-spanning user interface designed for Porsche and Aston Martin. Instead of simply taking over the infotainment center and small segments of the dashboard areas, look to go over all of the screens in the vehicle in question. The theme is different for each automaker and also gives CarPlay access to vehicle functions such as the radio and temperature settings. In the Porsche configuration, there is a three-dial layout with the speedometer on the left and wallpaper made to match the pattern of the houndstooth seats.

In Aston Martin's design, there is a multimedia screen Bahrain Phone Numbers List in the center, surrounded by the speedometer and tachometer, and outlined in the brand's distinctive green. Driver reports that all driving-specific data is delivered by the car's sensors, even when your iPhone is running the apps, with a note that, according to Apple, the phone does not store or track vehicle information. The feature was announced at Apple's WWDC developer conference i and at the same event this year, it told app developers to prepare for the new system that adds pairing with specific car keys, a stream of Simplified connection, improved Siri and other changes.



It's billed as "the ultimate iPhone experience" in the car, going a step further than overlays like traditional CarPlay, Android Auto, or even built-in Google apps (which will eventually be compatible with Porsche as well). It's also different from Android Automotive because it's still managed by your phone. Driver also reports that Aston Martin will support this in the infotainment system that will be launched next year in cars such as the DB12 and its convertible version, the DB12 Volante. Porsche's plans are less clear; However, in an email, Porsche spokesperson Calvin Kim said its systems integration will “go a level further” than existing setups with the launch of its all-electric Macan, with more details available next year.
