Google brings Gemini AI voice assistant to Apple CarPlay, expands beyond Siri

Alphabet Inc.’s Google is adding its Gemini artificial intelligence app to Apple Inc.’s CarPlay system, expanding options for drivers who may already be using the assistant on their Apple devices.

Users can have hands-free conversations with Gemini’s voice mode from the car’s display, Google said in a blog post Wednesday. Conversations will be synced to their Gemini app on iPhone. The feature is beginning to roll out now to all Gemini users on iOS globally. It will work with every language that’s supported in voice mode.

Users can use the feature to, for example, ask for nearby lunch spots during a road trip, or ask the tool to summarize unread emails and draft replies if they have connected Gemini to their email and calendar.

Until earlier this year, Apple had only allowed its own Siri assistant as a voice-control option on the in-car platform. It has since opened up the system to voice modes for other popular assistants, including OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic PBC’s Claude, xAI’s Grok and Perplexity.

Gemini’s voice mode has been available on Google’s vehicle system, Android Auto, and cars with Google built-in since last month.
