General Motors Co. is integrating Apple Inc.’s CarPlay in its latest infotainment system, three years after upsetting some consumers by eliminating the popular interface from its electric vehicles.
The new system will allow drivers to use CarPlay or Google’s Android Auto on a split screen that also shows key vehicle gauges such as fuel, tire pressure, Super Cruise hands-free driving and towing information. In addition, the system enables the driver to use vehicle functions and phone apps with less toggling between screens.
