Is Apple’s CarPlay Aiding GM Sales?

 
General Motors dealers say the company’s early support for building Apple’s CarPlay interface into dashboard displays such as its Sierra pickup truck is helping draw customers to showrooms.
General Motors Co. has been introducing  Apple's in-car software. This seems to be bringing a lot of more customers. Apple's in-car software is CarPlay, a software in which the car has a display of the iPhone's screen on a car dashboard, giving access to applications. One of the applications is the Apple maps. This is very useful and economic because with this people do not have to worry about buying a car with a navigation system, instead they can buy a normal car and use their phone to find directions as they drive. There are a few other automobile companies that offer the software, but only in a few models. 

This software is a new product and it is bringing a lot of customers toward General Motors Co. I think this is going to be a success and this will be very beneficial for General Motors because their finances are not that great, so this might help them improve. It is interesting how Apple is beginning to be incorporated everywhere, and it just keeps growing.
