An aftermarket upgrade kit restores Apple CarPlay to select GM electric vehicles (EVs) following GM's decision to remove the feature.

Supported Vehicles

  • Chevrolet Blazer EV
  • Chevrolet Equinox EV
  • Chevrolet Silverado EV (LT and RST trims)
  • GMC Sierra EV

Features

  • Wired and wireless CarPlay
  • Integration with vehicle infotainment
  • Apple Maps in instrument cluster and HUD

Developed by White Automotive and Media Services (WAMS), the upgrade offers a full CarPlay experience. Next-Gen Apple CarPlay is revolutionizing in-car experiences.

Availability and Installation

Currently, the kit is exclusively available through LaFontaine Chevrolet in Plymouth, Michigan, due to the complex installation process. This highlights the demand for CarPlay, as seen with Apple CarPlay resources.

This situation mirrors ongoing debates about in-car software, similar to Android Auto issues. It remains to be seen how this will affect GM's and Apple's automotive strategies.
