Read on below to learn about the latest alliance that will bring more connectivity than ever to you.
Recently, Volvo Car Group and Apple Inc. announced they would be joining forces to give you the world's most progressive cars suited with the world's most famous technology. The result of this alliance is called Apple CarPlay, and it will bring all the features and services available on iPads, iPhones or iPods right into your car. Thanks to a specially-developed interface that is operated by voice and steering wheel controls, the system will be incredibly safe and easy to use.
Håkan Samuelsson, President and CEO of Volvo Cars, had this to say about the partnership:
"Apple's clean and intuitive user interface is a perfect match with Volvo's Scandinavian Design approach and our focus on fluid functionality. ... iPhone users will feel completely at home in a new Volvo. We have created a wholly-integrated user experience in our large portrait-oriented touch screen that takes the in-car mobile device experience to a new level. That, coupled with the obvious driver safety benefits of an advanced voice control system like Siri, made Apple a perfect match for Volvo."
