    On the one hand, I am glad that the XC90 already comes with CarPlay, since it is a car that interests me, and in any case that it spreads, it seems like an advance. That I need to have the iPhone connected with cable, that seems like a backwardness to me, I hope they move quickly towards wireless connectivity.

    On the other hand, I assume that the text is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and I observe certain grammatical inconsistencies in the translation. Please feel free to edit this part of the comment if you consider it necessary. But the XC90 will have CarPlay. And the last two paragraphs are a little grammatical aberration: after the first comma, is there perhaps a "para" missing? Is the vehicle feasible to use Apple CarPlay? Where have they made it easier to make an appointment? I imagine you mean that Volvo makes it easy to make an appointment. And they can add the function "through with a software update"? That slipped from the draft, sure.

    YES, I have a lot of free time.

    And to speak ... In the second paragraph it should say "feel" and not "feel". I have free time. And my sight is no longer what it was. 😀
