Last year, Apple launched CarPlay Ultra, the long-awaited next-generation version of its CarPlay software system for vehicles. Nearly nine months later, CarPlay Ultra is still limited to Aston Martin's latest luxury vehicles, but that should change fairly soon.
In May 2025, Apple said many other vehicle brands planned to offer CarPlay Ultra, including Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis.

I hope this helps more people subscribe bc imo this is a fantastic service. Unlike other services, I don't feel like I am being smothered by so much content just hoping something would stick. Apple, so far, remains smaller but with actual quality content. I look forward to see what is to come.
Side note --IMO Ted Lasso is such a feel good show and Mythic Quest & Acapulco both deserve more love.
The streaming market is crowded and Apple wants people to pay for an anaemic service where every programme has to be about promoting Apple's 'core values.'
Blind people stabbing each other in see, sisters killing off their brother in law in bad sisters, etc etc yeah all apple core values. Take a day off!
