One of the highlight features is the multi-display support, which would allow CarPlay to extend beyond the main infotainment screen inside the car. Apple says that the layout and the shape of the screen will be custom-tailored for each car.

That includes even the instrument cluster. CarPlay will allow you to choose between different designs, layouts and there will even be some unique choices for certain manufacturers. Climate control is also going under the CarPlay umbrella as well as the FM radio, controlled by a brand new FM Radio app.

Lastly, CarPlay will introduce widgets that give you various related information at a glance. That includes fuel economy, trip duration, distance traveled, calendar events, weather, phone calls, etc.
