Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe is standing by his decision not to integrate Apple’s CarPlay into the company’s EVs, even as rivals embrace it. […] Speaking on The Verge’s Decoder podcast, Scaringe said Rivian aims to build a “seamless digital experience” entirely within its own software ecosystem. This means that Rivian will simply be offering native access to key apps like Apple Music, Spotify, Google Maps, and YouTube, according to MacRumors. […] Rivian’s software approach mirrors that of Tesla, which also relies on its own app integrations rather than Apple’s. […] The Rivian CEO added that the company is preparing to introduce AI-powered features within 18 months, including native voice-to-text messaging. Scaringe said this upcoming AI suite will further justify the brand’s decision to control the in-vehicle experience. “We’re really convicted on this,” the CEO said. While he acknowledged that some customers may avoid Rivian due to the lack of CarPlay, Scaringe said he’s “very confident” in the choice. “Some of those decisions not everyone’s going to agree with,” he said. “That’s okay.”
