GM's replacement for CarPlay is due at the end of 2023, but its dealers are in the dark about when that will be and what it will do to sales when buyers figure it out.

Especially for new car buyers. It’s a much more iPhone heavy group than the general population.

At least in countries where I’ve lived, there were two expensive phones that are popular: Samsung Galaxy, and iPhones. The only GM could have boned this harder is if they somehow nerfed the experience on Samsung flagships too.

They did, they aren't supporting car play or android auto

Idiots. This is a “don’t you guys have phones” moment, but about the GM management and I mean it unironically.
