Audi introduced a trio of CarPlay vehicles, including the all-new
2018 A5 and S5 cars and
Q5 SUV. Audi's standard smartphone interface provides CarPlay and Android Auto integration via USB connection. The vehicles will arrive at U.S. dealerships in spring 2017. Pricing has yet to be announced.
Kia's latest CarPlay vehicle is the 2017 Soul Exclaim, its all-new five-door crossover with a 201-horsepower turbocharged engine. CarPlay and Android Auto come standard with the vehicle's UVO3 infotainment system. The non-turbo 2017 Kia Soul also features CarPlay support. Pricing and availability was not disclosed.
Genesis, which Hyundai spun into a standalone luxury car brand in 2015, followed suit with the introduction of its all-new 2018 Genesis G80 3.3T Sport trim with CarPlay and Android Auto integration via USB connection. The luxury sedan, available spring 2017, is equipped with a 9.2-inch touchscreen navigation system.
This article will be updated to reflect other new CarPlay vehicles as they are announced at the auto show over the next few days.
Update: The 2017 Jeep Compass and 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio also debuted with CarPlay support.

Naturally you will require a dongle to fuel up, it won't be compatible with any industry standard, legacy, systems.
Just by looking at the pictures of the drivers position, it's not hard to see which design/layout makes sense and which one is more "form over function" especially with the data/controls at the bottom of the display on the Tesla.
I had google maps going, but wanted to listen to fm radio. Everytime Google Maps had something to say, the radio stopped and whatever music is on my iPhone started to play with the Google Maps talking on top of that. Then it wouldn't switch back to FM.
It was a terrible system.
