The new 2016 Sierra, Yukon and Canyon offer a new feature that iPhone owners are sure to use often. GMC's IntelliLink infotainment system will be compatible with Apple CarPlay, a technology that provides a greater connection between phones and cars, so drivers can access the functions they love on their mobile devices right from the dashboard or with voice controls.
Just like GMC's advanced safety features and available OnStar 4G LTE Internet connectivity, CarPlay will offer an enhanced and connected driving experience, giving iPhone users access to their phones via a simple, easy to navigate display. Through CarPlay, drivers can view maps, send and receive text messages, make calls, listen to music via iTunes and access other supported apps - see a few below! Siri gets to go along for the ride, too. All you have to do is ask and she'll assist you with listening to voicemails, returning missed calls and other tasks.
CarPlay is compatible with iOS 7.1 or higher and devices including the iPhone 5, 5c, 5s, 6 and 6 Plus. Android users haven't been left out either. Android Auto compatibility will also be featured on select first-in 2016 Sierras and later in the year it will be available on all production 2016 Sierras, Canyons and Yukons. Android Auto offers numerous apps which will be accessible through the IntelliLink system, including the ones listed below and many more.
