Hopefully since it's possible to add a background image, then maybe the same mechanism can allow a firmware update.

If it doesn't, I only use my phone for streaming music and waze with maybe the occasional incoming phone call so no big loss for me.

I think this is total BS. :/

Agree. They showed it running on a 2014 model Civic… Although I wouldn't put it past Apple to tell them "performance is not up to our expectations" or similar and simply not allow them to implement.

Sorry but let's not blame Apple on this one. When Apple announced CarPlay, Honda stated that they will continue with their HondaLink technology. 2 years later they are still behind.
