Some of the reasons quoted by company officials include safety and a need to constantly shuffle between the car's native interface and the one offered by Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.AdvertisementAdvertisementSoon after, GM started cracking down on smartphone mirroring. None of the company's newly revealed EVs come with CarPlay or Android Auto, and the models that are already in production have had the features removed when they were updated. The GMC Hummer EV lost them when the 2026 model year was introduced, and the same happened with the base Chevrolet Silverado EV.Only the Lyriq survived, but this will likely change in the future, as General Motors is looking to ditch Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in all of its cars, not just EVs. Last year, GM CEO Mary Barra said that the company received a lot of feedback from customers who said it was "very clunky" moving from the car's native interface to CarPlay and back."It wasn't seamless, and frankly, in some cases, it could be distracting to move back and forth if you were doing something that you could do on a phone projection type of system, versus if you needed to do something in the vehicle," said Barra. However, the American automaker is still offering CarPlay on EVs sold overseas.Getting back to the 2027 Cadillac Lyriq, it will cost you $200 extra to get behind the wheel of GM's last U.S.-spec EV with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The entry-level Luxury RWD trim starts from $61,195, including destination, while the Signature RWD goes for $70,295.
