Ferrari announced that it will not use the built-in navigation application in the new Purosangue SUV and 12Cilindri models.
In the past, many automakers have tried to develop their own systems to offer the best navigation experience in their vehicles.
However, many of these systems were difficult to use and difficult to keep up to date. Navigation applications on smartphones have become more useful, up-to-date and full of features.
Italian sports car manufacturer Ferrari announced that it will not use the built-in navigation application in its new Purosangue SUV and 12Cilindri models.
The company cites the reason behind this decision as better and more up-to-date navigation applications on smartphones.
Now, many manufacturers are focusing on smartphone integrations such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
In this way, drivers can use their preferred navigation applications in their vehicles' infotainment systems.
Ferrari's decision to abandon the built-in navigation app shows the change in automakers' perspective on user experience.
Drivers now prefer the flexibility and innovation offered by smartphones instead of complex and expensive systems to offer the best navigation experience in their vehicles.
