The Swedish EV with Android Automotive functionality now supports Apple users as well

Apple users rejoice – Swedish automaker Polestar has announced an over-the-air update for their Polestar 2 range that includes support for Apple CarPlay.

The most fun part about driving a Polestar is driving it, but there's more to it. Our latest over-the-air update for the Polestar 2 comes with Apple CarPlay, allowing Polestar owners with an iPhone to change music, use apps, and communicate through Siri or the infotainment system pic.twitter.com/mulkjIUR6D

The car previously only supported the Google-powered Android Automotive software leaving iPhone users without the seamless functionality of CarPlay.

Announced on their Twitter account, the function will come as an over-the-air update and will allow Polestar drivers with an iPhone to connect to the infotainment system, and use Siri instead of Google Assistant.

Here’s what we think of the Polestar 2 Standard Range

While a CarPlay update was expected from the brand in 2021, this update comes better late than never. Polestar Singapore says local owners will receive the OTA (over the air) update in the coming weeks.

You can look forward to an SUV EV from Polestar soon
