Exactly. Tesla and Rivian are also out of the running. When it’s time to replace my EV6 I am looking elsewhere.

There are lots of reasons someone may rule out Tesla but this is not one of them. For everyone else, no CarPlay is a dealbreaker but Tesla knows how to write software. Given that software can do so much more than any other cars and it’s pretty well done, the compromise is a good trade off.

Now GM as the other example, has a long record of piss poor software. They need CarPlay. It’s hard to believe all the extra tracking their stuff does is worth the customers they lose

Also, VW, until they put a fucking physical knob on the entertainment system I won’t be buying a vehicle from them.
