(News Bulletin 247) – Porsche has announced that it has extended the functionality of the My Porsche application to offer new features in Apple CarPlay®. The sports car manufacturer is the first automaker to allow easier access to vehicle functions in CarPlay®.

“We are excited to further improve the My Porsche app and use the capabilities of Apple CarPlay to deliver a truly enhanced customer experience,” said Mattias Ulbrich, CEO of Porsche Digital and CIO Porsche AG.

‘The My Porsche application is the hub for the digital management and control of a Porsche vehicle’, the group emphasizes.

For example, it shows the vehicle’s battery charge status, can adjust the air conditioning and send destinations to the navigation system. In addition, the My Porsche app links existing accounts with third-party providers, e.g. Apple Music®, to associated apps in Porsche Communication Management (PCM).

The feature makes its debut in the new Porsche Cayenne, available now. After that, it will be rolled out to other model lines.
