Lucid Air Gets Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Support [Video]

Lucid Motors has announced that Apple CarPlay is now standard on the Lucid Air. Both CarPlay and Android Auto were widely requested features that have to make it to rival EV makers Tesla and Rivian.

Wireless Apple CarPlay comes standard. Say hello to the smarter and safer way to use your iPhone in the Lucid Air. Get directions, make phone calls, respond to text messages, enjoy your favorite music, and more — all on the Glass Cockpit display.




Here's how Lucid describes its connectivity experience.

Throughout your trip, you can interact with Lucid Air in a variety of ways. With Alexa Built-in, you get deep integration of in-car controls just by talking. Alexa can help you adjust your seat heaters, lighting, sunshades, navigation, and more. DreamDrive driver assistance offers peace of mind. And Surreal Sound, Lucid's available 21-speaker immersive audio system, elevates the entertainment experience. Air is even compatible with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and countless other apps.

Notably, it appears that CarPlay will only appear in the right portion of the 34-inch 5K display. Check it out in the video below or hit the link for more details...
