Make Sure It’s Equipped
Not every model year or trim has Apple CarPlay, especially in the earlier years.
Some vehicles offered it only on higher trims or with optional tech packages.
And a few—like older BMWs or Mazdas—might need a software update or retrofit.
Double-check before you buy.
FAQs
What model years of used cars typically come with Apple CarPlay?
Most vehicles from 2016 onward offer Apple CarPlay as a standard or optional feature, with support expanding to over 800 models between 2014–2024. Always double-check specific trim levels and packages, as earlier years may require optional infotainment upgrades.
Can I get wireless Apple CarPlay in a used car?

Is it possible to add CarPlay to a used car that didn’t originally include it?
Absolutely! You can install an aftermarket CarPlay-compatible head unit or use dongles that add wireless capability to wired systems. Ensure your car supports the necessary protocols before purchasing—this can expand compatibility to older models not originally equipped with CarPlay .
