As we already knew from the leaks regarding Apple's "iOS In The Car" System All Set To Launch This Week, today Apple officially announced “CarPlay†at Geneva International Motor Show. CarPlay will integrate your iPhone with your car, because of which operating the cell phone while driving will be easier by using voice commands or the controls on car. Vehicles from Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo will be the first ones to bring CarPlay feature followed by other car manufacturers including BMW Group, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai Motor Company, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia Motors, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan Motor Company, PSA Peugeot Citroën, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota Motor Corp.

Apple maps will be providing turn-by-turn navigation and show the map on car’s built-in display.
