Chevy Bolt and Apple CarPlay
The 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV and Bolt EV both support Apple CarPlay. Both trims, 1LT and 2LT, come standard with Apple CarPlay integration, and you can easily connect to Apple CarPlay wirelessly in both models. It’s worth noting that the 2023 Chevy Bolt EV also comes with a 10.2-inch touchscreen, through which you can access both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto apps.
Additionally, the 2021 Chevy Bolt electric vehicle is equipped with Wireless CarPlay, allowing Apple’s infotainment feature to take over the car’s built-in screen as soon as you get in the car, even if your iPhone is in your pocket or bag. This model also comes with a built-in Qi pad for wirelessly charging newer iPhones without a Lightning cable.
For those who prefer wireless connectivity, it’s important to note that starting in 24MY vehicles, Apple CarPlay will only work for devices with iOS 14 or later through both wired and wireless connections.
In summary, both the 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV and Bolt EV support Apple CarPlay, with the option for wireless connectivity in the 2021 model and beyond.
