How Apple CarPlay Works in Your car?

With Apple CarPlay properly set up and your compatible iPhone connected either wirelessly or via USB cable, your car's built-in infotainment system touchscreen will switch to display the CarPlay interface customized for safe driving use.

Tapping on the icons will launch the corresponding iPhone apps in fully optimized CarPlay mode on your car's touchscreen. All content from your iPhone apps will be mirrored and formatted to take advantage of your car's display. The apps can be accessed using your car's touchscreen, control knob/dial or steering wheel buttons.

And CarPlay supports Siri voice commands activated through your car's controls or steering wheel. This allows you to keep your eyes on the road for maximum safety while using Siri to make calls, send messages, get directions etc.
In summary, with both wired and wireless connection modes, Apple CarPlay enables your car's infotainment system to safely display and control iPhone apps to meet all your driving needs.
