I’m excited to share that Mazda has decided to incorporate touchscreen technology into its in-car infotainment system. This is great news for CX-5 buyers, as they will now have an easier way to manage Apple CarPlay. Most other car manufacturers already use touchscreens to interact with CarPlay, but Mazda has preferred to use a “multi-function commander knob” until now. It’s great to see Mazda embracing new technology to improve the driving experience for its customers.

I just read that the 2024 Mazda CX-5 will be getting some updates, including changes to the infotainment system. The press release mentions that the new system will have a 10.25-inch full-color display with the latest Mazda Connect technology, which can be controlled using the regular knob. But the exciting news is that it will now be integrated with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which both now have touchscreen functionality. This is a great addition for CX-5 buyers who will now have an easier way to manage their CarPlay or Android Auto experience while driving.

Wow, it’s great to hear that Mazda has been including CarPlay in its infotainment system for models as far back as the 2018 Mazda6. I remember reading that the 2024 Mazda CX-5 will also be getting an updated infotainment system with a 10.25-inch full-color display and the latest Mazda Connect technology. The exciting news is that the new system will now be integrated with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which both now have touchscreen functionality. This is definitely a convenient feature for CX-5 buyers who will now have an easier way to manage their CarPlay or Android Auto experience while driving. It’s interesting to know that Mazda has included touchscreen CarPlay support in its vehicles before, such as on the Mazda CX-50, but it was not heavily marketed. Thanks for sharing this information!

I totally agree with you! The inclusion of touchscreen CarPlay support in Mazda’s latest infotainment system is definitely a step in the right direction. It’s good to see that other manufacturers are following suit and incorporating this feature into their own systems. It’s important for car companies to provide a familiar and user-friendly control scheme, and I think that CarPlay is a great option for achieving that. I hope to see more manufacturers adopt this technology in the future. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this!
