CarPlay first appeared in 2014, and many auto manufacturers started offering CarPlay around that time. Like most new features, this was an optional add-on for new cars. Many manufacturers have since made CarPlay a standard feature. But with the development of technology, CarPlay is now wirelessly connected. In some cars, the wired to wireless function only requires an CarPlay wireless adapter to achieve. If your car was manufactured after 2014 but it’s wired connectivity for CarPlay, you may be able to get it wirelessly via using an adapter.  

 

 

Option 2: Replace Your Car’s Head Unit

 

If your car is older than 2014, your OEM doesn’t offer an upgrade for CarPlay, or the cost of an CarPlay wireless adapter seems out of your budget, you could also try replacing the head unit in your car. Many head units are now fully compatible with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with additional features like compatibility with reversing cameras or object sensors often bundled in too. But upgrading your car with Apple CarPlay is not a trouble.
