Volvo has announced an update to its CarPlay system that adds a Spatial Audio feature to three of its models: the EX90, EX60, and ES90. This feature, powered by Dolby Atmos technology, provides a multi-dimensional and immersive sound experience for drivers, placing music, vocals, and other audio elements around the cabin. To fully enjoy this immersive audio experience, Volvo drivers need a Bowers & Wilkins premium sound system, which includes 25 high-performance speakers.
The EX90 is the first model to receive this update, with the EX60 and ES90 expected to follow suit in the near future. Volvo emphasizes that Spatial Audio in CarPlay requires the Bowers & Wilkins sound system for a fully immersive experience. For those who don't plan on purchasing a new Volvo, Pioneer has launched the first aftermarket CarPlay system that offers Spatial Audio playback through Dolby Atmos.
