Does the Corolla have CarPlay?
2 Answers
2020 Toyota Corolla supports CarPlay, but the latest 2021 Toyota Corolla has removed this feature. Introduction to CarPlay: CarPlay is an in-car system released by Apple Inc., seamlessly integrating users' iOS devices and iOS experience with the dashboard system. Functions of CarPlay: By connecting a phone to CarPlay via a data cable, drivers can use some of the car's functions, making it convenient to operate and freeing their hands. It allows making calls, sending messages, navigation, listening to music, and adjusting the car's infotainment system.
Yes, the Corolla has CarPlay, at least in the newer models. I drive a 2022 Corolla myself, and it comes with Apple CarPlay functionality. Once connected to an iPhone, it displays maps, music, and messaging apps directly on the car's screen. It's really handy, especially for long trips, as Siri's voice navigation helps avoid distractions from looking at the phone. CarPlay supports most Apple services, but be aware that older or base models might not be compatible. I recommend checking the vehicle manual or test-driving to confirm when buying a car. Toyota has been upgrading its multimedia systems in recent years; besides CarPlay, some models also have Android Auto, benefiting Android users as well. This is really helpful for daily commuting safety, reducing driving risks. Overall, as a family car, the Corolla with these smart features significantly enhances the experience, making it ideal for urban commuters like me.
