Maybe they have to hit a price point in ur country?

I thinks sim slot is needed for some reason.

Maybe next time but here or Germany or somewhere and drive back?

That pic looks very different to our cars.

Good luck. --

there's nothing like it.

In my opinion a sim slot shouldn't be necessary for CarPlay to work. I used several cars with CarPlay and they just could connect to the phone without any sim on board... However, there is this post that says the sim slot is required for the update... for the cars up to 2018! https://www.ovalnews.com/2019/03/finally-h...ports.html Because MY 2019 RR have CarPlay as standard... This is very confusing...

And I don't think there is a price target, the prices are about the same all over Europe...

A visit to a dealer in Austria or Germany seems like a good idea...

i agree that they shouldn't be needed. I've driven loads of hire cars which have car play and dont as far as i know have a sim.

there is an integrated sim already fitted for the incontrol protect so it might use that.. ... - .- -.

Reading up on it. It seems it’s mainly for WiFi hot spot use. But it can give better signal strength than mobile phone in car so might be useful. Uses car aerial which is stronger and external to car. You can do voip over WiFi calls more reliably than just calling from ur mobile where line might drop. --
