> People buy Tesla for Tesla and not because CarPlay.

They increasingly just don't buy Tesla. Strong growth in that segment lately.

I recall though, back in 2021 we rented one as a test drive situation. The UX was so horrific I did an immediate 180 on that idea. Hard pass. Carplay might've saved that sale, their stock infotainment is trash.

I wouldn't be surprised if they go all on in Carplay Ultra near the end.

Oh, I'm aware. I have no love for Tesla. I was making an observation of what I see around me (plenty of new Teslas on the road even after Elons shenanigans)
