I was very, very excited for Carplay, and is one of the reasons I went with two Hyundais over the comparable Mazda models. Unfortunately, my new Sante Fe did get the update, my 2015 Sonata didn't. Although I must say, after using Carplay for about a month, I usually deactivate it unless I'm using Maps. The UI is just wonky, it reads texts aloud when I don't want it too, and the Music app, which I thought would be the best part, is actually the worst. My factory-installed music playing app on the Hyundai is way better, and it's still not great. In the Carplay app, you can't skip through a song by touching on the timeline, which is insane since you can do that on every iOS device. When you're listening to a song you can't tap on the song and see other songs on the same album, which i was really hoping for. It just feels like a really neutered version of iOS, and I hope they fix it up soon. Maybe it varies by car company, but as it is, the Hyundai one isn't great, which doesn't bode well for the Kia version, I'm afraid.
