Jack Rix: “At last, the Apple Car has arrived! Sort of...”

If you’re already hooked on Apple, and a user of CarPlay, you’re going to love this even more.

Everything is integrated and shot through with Apple’s hallmark clarity and familiarity – something that carmakers are so hit and miss with when it comes to their in-house software. By the way, you can always switch back to the manufacturer’s UI if you prefer, or MkI CarPlay if you must.

I’m not an Android user, by the way. I just miss a time when car interiors felt special.
