"For what it's worth, as a Tesla owner, I don't particularly see the need for CarPlay, as I have found the in-car system that the company has developed to be superior. However, many people are in love with CarPlay simply because, when it's in a car that is capable, it is really great. Tesla's Apple CarPlay ambitions appeared to be dead in the water after a large amount of speculation"
"However, it appears that CarPlay might make its way to Tesla vehicles after all, as a recent report seems to indicate that it is still being worked on by software teams for the company. The real question is whether it is truly needed or if it is just a want by so many owners that Tesla is listening and deciding to proceed with its development."
Tesla continues internal development of Apple CarPlay for its vehicles after earlier speculation cooled. Testing of Apple CarPlay in Tesla vehicles began in November, indicating development progress. The company historically resisted adopting external UIs but is now exploring integration. A study found nearly one-third of car buyers consider the lack of CarPlay a deal-breaker, which may influence decisions. The loss of the $7,500 EV tax credit removed a consumer advantage and could further motivate CarPlay adoption. Tesla's native interface remains capable, but CarPlay would provide a widely desired alternative, with more details expected soon.
