Rivian won’t add CarPlay to its cars. It doesn’t need to
Rivian software front-on

Legacy carmakers may have struggled to build new and user-friendly software for their vehicles, but a crop of new car companies have come along with different ideas on how car software should be approached. The likes of Tesla and, more recently, Rivian are just as much tech companies as they are car companies, putting a heavy emphasis on the software in their vehicles and how it can be improved in the wider automotive industry. And traditional carmakers are taking notice. Rivian and Volkswagen just signed a big deal to create next-generation software platforms, a move that’s likely to benefit Volkswagen a whole lot.

So, when Rivian executives constantly get asked about adding CarPlay to their vehicles, it makes sense that the answer is a resounding "no."

If you want the most technology in your performance car, look no further than the 2025 Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance, a plug-in hybrid super sedan that’s as complex as its name is long.

Plug-in hybrids like the C63 are how Mercedes’ legendary AMG performance division aims to achieve modern performance while it continues to develop the tech for true high-performance EVs. While it still burns some gasoline, the 2025 C63 is a big improvement over its predecessor in terms of efficiency, swapping a thirsty V8 engine for one with half the cylinders that's assisted by electric power.
