The software system will have deeper integration with a vehicle's instrument cluster, climate controls, FM radio, and more. It will also support multiple displays across the dashboard and offer a variety of personalization options.
The launch timing for next-generation CarPlay is still uncertain as only two automakers so far - Porsche and Aston Martin - have committed to the product. More carmakers are expected to sign on in the future, with BMW, Ford, General Motors, Lucide Polestar Stellantis and Volkswagen already offering Android Automotive as an option for car buyers.
While Apple has not yet announced any plans to monetize next-generation CarPlay, it is believed that some consumers may prefer vehicles with the feature. As such, there is a possibility that Apple could start charging car producers to support CarPlay in order to generate revenue from this popular technology.

Fallacies

< So far, Apple has focused on high-end carmakers for commitments to support next-gen CarPlay>

Deception
(30%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that CarPlay has long been considered more reliable and stable than Android Auto due to Apple's walled garden. However, this statement is misleading as it implies that there are no restrictions on CarPlay which is not true. In fact, the article acknowledges later on in the text that CarPlay also had its share of bugs and connection issues especially with the iPhone 15 release. Secondly, when discussing Apple's increased commitment to improving CarPlay, the author states that this is due to Project Titan being abandoned which implies that there was a direct correlation between these two events. However, it is not clear if Project Titan's abandonment directly led to an increase in resources allocated towards CarPlay or if it was simply a coincidence. Lastly, when discussing the next-generation CarPlay 2.0 and its adoption by carmakers, the author states that more carmakers will adopt this new release in the coming months and years which implies that there is already widespread support for this system despite no mention of any specific partnerships or agreements being made.
