General Motors plans to phase out widely-used Apple CarPlay and Android Auto technologies that allow drivers to bypass a vehicle's infotainment systems, shifting instead to built-in infotainment systems developed with Google for future electric vehicles.

in the competition with Google to capture more real estate on vehicle dashboards in North America. GM's Chevrolet brand in the past boasted of offering more models with CarPlay or Android Auto than any other brand.

"We have a lot of new driver assistance features coming that are more tightly coupled with navigation," Himche told Reuters. "We don’t want to design these features in a way that are dependent on person having a cellphone."

What a ridiculous idea

That is comical, GM will be gone in 10 years …stupid move

That should work out great. Sheesh

Remind me not to buy a GM car. Haha, J/K. I would never buy their garbage in the first place.

They do realise April Fools day is tommorrow, right?

Apple wants to much for Services that 's Capitolism I don't blame GM 👍❗

This isn’t a set back for Apple. This is a setback for GM! Many will not buy a car without Apple CarPlay.

Not that I’ve had a gm vehicle is 25 years but now a non starter!

So they made it easier to avoid their trash vehicles, good to know.

Guess I’ll never buy a GM vehicle

Good to know, that takes GM off the table.
