The 2015 Hyundai Sonata will be equipped with in-car Smartphone OS from both Apple and Google before the end of this year, making it the first car manufacturer to have both. Both the OS operate in a similar way by imitating the interface of a cell phone enabling users to access their phone’s features and content directly from the touch screen. The option of two OS is geared towards the diverse mobile phone market where iOS and Android are two widely used operating systems.

Apple CarPlay is a seamless transition between Apple iOS and your car. Plugging in your iPhone to the Sonata will make it play the same music track you were listening before you started driving while your messages would pop up in the infotainment screen. You can also use your mobile internet to stream internet radio stations while driving and even music from sites like SoundCloud. Your iPhone is basically synced with your car so just tapping on an address in a text message or email prepares the car to automatically map out the route for you on its navigation system.

Google just announced their in-car OS which is dubbed as Android Auto at its Google IO press conference. Basically same as Google Now, it’d work with voice commands. Your Android phone would do all the work and stream the results directly to the screen of your Sonata.

While all this sounds very nice and futuristic, it is still a wait and see game concerning new tech’s viability. For now, Hyundai is looking to be the first car maker to offer both in-car smartphone operating systems and that should certainly drive up sales of its impressive 2015 Sonata, while other car makers rush to make the same implementation.
