The difference between the new generation car networking system and CarPlay／Carlife

Let’s analyze it from different angles and see the differences between the new generation car networking system and CarPlay/Carlife:

Differentiation of OEM perspectives:

First of all, from the standpoint of automobile manufacturers (OEMs), CarPlay is dominated by Apple, and the role of OEMs is relatively limited. The application of CarPlay needs to be operated through the mobile phone. Although the OEM saves the traffic fee, the data control is in the mobile phone, not the car itself. The new generation of car networking systems seek deeper integration, such as zebra system, which aims to become the center of car machines, not just the copy of mobile phone functions.

Differences in integration depth:

Mobile phone mapping technologies such as CarPlay are less integrated with vehicles and only run as on-screen applications. The new generation car networking system can be deeply integrated with vehicle hardware to realize voice control, such as BYD system of BYD, which allows multiple modules to be controlled and creates more possibilities.

Improvement of user experience:

In terms of user experience, mapping systems such as CarPlay have limitations, such as the conflict between navigation and mobile phone operation. The new generation car networking system solves these problems through deep integration, and provides a smoother interactive experience, such as controlling vehicle functions through voice commands without disturbing drivers.

Evolution of hardware configuration:

Due to the limitation of function, the hardware configuration of traditional lathe is relatively simple. With the development of intelligent network, the hardware of the new generation car has also been significantly improved, such as supporting multi-touch and higher-level user experience design.

Generally speaking, the difference between the new generation car networking system and CarPlay/Carlife lies in the improvement of integration, control ability and user experience. In the era of intelligent networking, the car is no longer a simple entertainment system, but as the core component of car intelligence, providing drivers with a more convenient and intelligent interactive experience. Therefore, it is no longer applicable to discuss the substitution relationship between traditional car and CarPlay/Carlife. The future development trend is to deepen the interaction between people and cars and promote the popularization of intelligent travel.
