Although Acura first introduced CarPlay connectivity with the NSX in 2017, it wasn't until 2019 that compatibility was extended to the RDX's stock head unit. The MDX and TLX became compatible in 2018, and the ILX followed suit in 2019. Unfortunately, the 2017 RDX does not support CarPlay, but there are alternative options available. You can explore aftermarket head units from brands like Alpine, Kenwood, and Pioneer for around $500 that will work with your Apple devices through CarPlay. While the price may seem high, consider it a safety upgrade as Apple promotes its user-friendly interface to keep drivers focused on the road and less on their phones, reducing the risk of accidents.

    This car doesn't offer Apple CarPlay, but it does provide various ways to hook up your iPhone to the sound system, such as Bluetooth and an auxiliary port. As the desire for this function grows, more car makers are likely to incorporate it into their entertainment setups.
