Can anyone advise when Apple Car play became a standard function on the W222 S Class?

THANKS

I think you can have it added though. I had W213 which did not have it (66 plate), and on the first service asked them to look at the COMAND as it was sluggish to respond, and had one or two other issues. The technician applied the latest software to the system, which fixed the issues I had, but also added support for Carplay and the Android equivalent, and well as a few UI changes that had no material impact but did look a bit more stylish.

That's only for the 213 unfortunately

Do you mean the 2018 model year cars that were announced in 2017? The ones with the updated steering wheel and straight six diesel engine.

Thank You!

I fitted an aftermarket carplay module to my 2016 S Class.... bit of a job as the centre console has to come out, but the end result looks good imho

Hi. Would you mind advising how much it cost - I’m currently looking at buying an S but likely will be a 2017 pre facelift-I would dearly like CarPlay and would be keen to know how much it would cost.
Thank you
