A world first as Aston Martin debuts next-generation Apple CarPlay Ultra®
Two global brands. One prestigious partnership. Aston Martin and Apple have aligned their design philosophies to equip drivers with an intuitively connected future. This is the global launch of Apple CarPlay Ultra®, making its first appearance on Aston Martin’s Supercar of SUV’s DBX707and across all new core models*.
Shown on DBX707, CarPlay Ultra® offers a seamless experience across the central display, and for the first time, the driver instrument cluster. Innovatively displaying key vehicle information and allowing users to control vehicle functions through bespoke Aston Martin and CarPlay Ultra® features.
After a simple, one-time-only iPhone set up, CarPlay Ultra® activates automatically on ignition to offer drivers the same levels of integration, connectivity and control as within their native Aston Martin UI and UX systems.

Multi-display integration
CarPlay Ultra® extends beyond the central infotainment screen into the driver instrument cluster. Apple Maps now elegantly extends into the driver’s display, placing vital information precisely where it’s needed, while media and wallpapers flow across both screens.
This new era of driver-centric interface design presents essential vehicle information such as speed, RPM, fuel level, gear selection, and key Advanced Driver Assistance Systems. Alerts such as tyre pressure warnings appear as pop-ups in situ, ensuring vital updates remain instantly accessible.

Integrated vehicle controls
CarPlay Ultra® provides revolutionary access to the vehicle's core system controls such as heating and ventilation, 3D camera views and advanced parking systems, audio settings, dynamic vehicle configurations and active safety systems.

Instrument cluster personalisation
CarPlay Ultra® offers curated personalisation options. Allowing users to choose from a considered collection of Aston Martin or Apple inspired graphics. IP choices include classic twin dial or innovative ‘Power Bar’ themes. Drivers are able to choose between colours, textures and patterns, including gradients, landscapes and topographical options for each theme.

Enhanced widget support
CarPlay Ultra® includes customisable widgets that display real-time information such as trip duration, fuel economy, calendar events, and weather updates. These widgets can be tailored to individual preferences and displayed across different screens.

Siri and Apple Intelligence
Aston Martin have worked closely with the team at Apple to integrate Siri at the forefront of CarPlay Ultra® for voice control on features like navigation, climate control and messaging.
CarPlay Ultra® brings Apple Intelligence to Aston Martin, allowing interaction with the car and other third-party apps such as parking, quick food ordering and fuelling to suit the driver’s location and needs. While familiar features such as Apple Navigation, Apple Music, iMessage and third-party apps such as Spotify and WhatsApp are maintained.
This is the next-generation of CarPlay®. A partnership that heralds a new benchmark of automotive excellence, where advanced technology and elevated design converge.
*Apple CarPlay Ultra® is now available across our core range subject to availability according to vehicle model and market. Please contact your local dealership for more information.
