Earlier this year BMW had to bow to customer pressure and make CarPlay a standard fitment. I'm considering an XC40 (if the 1.5 goes back on Motability in October—bit of disability discrimination on Volvo's part by taking it off!) but CarPlay could be a deal-breaker.
But there are people like me that don't want it and don't want to pay for it. Much fairer for those that want it to pay for the addon don't you think?
