About this episode

Nikias Molina explores the new CarPlay Ultra with Apple’s Fabrice Esteve, highlighting its innovative features and implications for the future of driving.

I got to try the all-new CarPlay Ultra with Fabrice Esteve, Project Lead for Infotainment at Apple—and it completely changes what driving with CarPlay feels like. From the stunning full-dashboard interface to the smart integration with your car’s native features, this is Apple’s most ambitious in-car experience yet. In this video, I take you inside the car to show you exactly how it works, what surprised me, and what it means for the future of driving with Apple.
