CarPlay isn&#x27;t new, and it&#x27;s head-and-shoulders better than the OEM environment on my car.<p>It&#x27;s got some bugs (9.2 seems to have introduced one where it messes up system audio playback at times), but interface wise it works very well.<p>Car manufacturers can&#x27;t mess with it. Apple pre-maps certain buttons and supports a scroll wheel, but they can&#x27;t customize it at all, Apple has control.
