Apple CarPlay W205

[Senna11]

Does this have to be connected via US ? Is there a wireless solution available?

The original MB factory fitment is cable only.

Some aftermarket kits support Bluetooth connection.

Thanks. Can’t believe this doesn’t connect wirelessly.

I think it's on purpose.

The idea is that you should put your phone away while driving (the original iPod connector was inside the glove compartment).

I think it’s just the tech is not as up to date as in other cars. BMWs are wireless and have been for some time.
