Mercedes Wants To Bring CarPlay To Older Vehicles This Year

After the big reveal a couple of days ago, the biggest question on car-owners minds was of course “Can I get CarPlay for my car?”. Unfortunately there are no official plans at the moment to make it backwards compatible or to non-partner manufacturers cars but Mercedes-Benz however have just said that they will be planning to deliver an aftermarket solution for older cars to make full use of the Apple CarPlay by the end of the year. So far it’s just Mercedes but I won’t be surprised if other partners like Ford outline their plans soon.

Unfortunately for me, no Kia supported =(

I wonder how long it will take for 3rd party manufacturers to come up with a solution
