Porsche’s first hybrid 911 ‘deeply’ integrates CarPlay, but not the next-gen kind


Porsche has said it would be early to next-gen CarPlay.

There’s also some new tech in the dash, including an all-digital instrument cluster on a 12.6-inched curved display that now shows information from CarPlay, which it says is “integrated more deeply into the vehicle.” Porsche spokesperson Frank Weissman told The Verge via email that this is “a similar setup to what we introduced on our latest Cayenne, Panamera and electric Macan models.” It’s charged by a “newly developed 3.6-liter boxer engine” and is used to power things like a new electric turbocharger and the car’s air conditioning compressor.
