If when you renewed your vehicle, CarPlay was not available, the only solution to be able to enjoy this Apple technology in vehicles is to buy a separate device and install it in the location of the radio. One of the manufacturers that most different models offers us is Pioneer.
To the wide range of CarPlay receivers we add a new model just presented at CES 2021 that is being held, virtually and where the main manufacturers of consumer devices are presenting their news for this year. I am talking about a new receiver whose touch panel is independent of the control unit.
This device is ideal for those users whose vehicles do not have room for single DIN or double DIN installation, as it allows the control unit to be installed anywhere in the vehicle and the screen attached to the dashboard or replacing the vehicle's multimedia screen.
This receiver, whose model number is DMH-WC5700NEX, offers us a 6,8 inch, includes bluetooth connectivity, HD radio, SiriusXM compatible, RFB lighting, input to connect a rear camera and an HDMI output for an entertainment system in the rear of the vehicle., RCA amplifier outputs ...
According to Ted Cárdenas, vice president of marketing for Pionner Electronics USA:
With the DMH-WC5700NEX, Pioneer offers an automotive upgrade solution for many different vehicles that have typically been extremely restrictive or even impossible with regards to installing an aftermarket dashboard receiver.
For now, the company has not announced the price that will have this new model, a new model that will hit the market in the middle of the year.
For a couple of years, most manufacturers offer us as an option when buying a new CarPlay or Android Auto vehicle. The price is reasonable taking into account what a vehicle costs and the long-term investment it entails, not to mention the comfort it offers us.
