Description
The 2026 Cadillac Optiq can not connect to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto? Is that a deal breaker for a new car?
Overall, the Optiq has a great screen with a great layout and apps can be easily downloaded onto that screen, but as Matthew Guy notes, we've already got all those apps on our phones and we're more than familiar with that interface.
Superb Screen: The colour and clarity of the EV's screen is superb, we'd love to see how that would've translated over to the Apple/Android interfaces.
The New Norm: Rumour has it all GM vehicles, EVs and ICE, will ditch smartphone mirroring in 2028.
Other interesting features: An AKG-branded stereo system brings the goods, with 19 speakers and Dolby Atmos serving up the type of concert-level and multispatial sound typically reserved for live performances or expensive home systems.
Would you buy a Cadillac Optiq or is the lack of Apple CarPlay/Android Auto a deal breaker for you? 👇
