The new in-house developed infotainment system will debut on the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV.<\/h2>\n

General Motors will drop both Android Auto & Apple CarPlay systems across all its models & replace them with an in-house developed connected tech. As per reports, General Motors claims that both Apple & Android’s connected tech cause safety issues.<\/p>\n

Tim Babbit, GM’s head of product for Infotainment, stated that the company feels that Android Auto and Apple Carplay encourage drivers to use their cell phones while behind the wheel. Both GM & Babbit think that if a car’s in-built infotainment is good, drivers are less likely to use their phones for what they are trying to do when driving. Having said that, Babbit admits that this thinking hasn’t been tested in any controlled environment to check whether or not it’s true.<\/p>\n

General Motors will be unveiling its new in-house developed system, called Ultifi. The new in-house developed infotainment system will debut on the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV. The new system comes with Google Maps with Assistant built into the system itself. The new tech will also be able to handle calls and texts while also controlling audio and climate systems.<\/p>\n
