Apple reveals CarPlay at Geneva 2014

Apple has announced it will reveal its new in-car iPhone system at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show this week.

CarPlay is integrated into the car’s infotainment system and uses Siri to receive voice commands from the driver – such as playing music, dictating text messages or making phone calls.

It will also be able to plot routes and give directions using Apple’s map application, as well as anticipate destinations based on recent trips.

We expect to see Apple CarPlay fitted to a wide variety of cars from later this year, but for now we’ll see it launched with Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo models at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show.

Nissan, Peugeot, Jaguar Land Rover and BMW are also expected to incorporate Apple CarPlay into their cars in the near future.
