Volvo has announced the integration of Apple Music into its vehicle infotainment system, covering over two million cars globally. The rollout began on July 7, 2026, using an over-the-air (OTA) update, meaning no dealer visit or hardware modification is required. The update is delivered remotely to compatible models.
This move expands Volvo's partnership with Apple, building on existing support for Apple CarPlay. The integration allows drivers to access Apple Music directly through the car's native interface, including personalized playlists and spatial audio support. Volvo has not specified the exact models affected but confirmed the update targets vehicles equipped with Google-based infotainment systems.
The OTA update is part of Volvo's broader strategy to enhance connected services. The company has not disclosed the total number of vehicles that have received the update so far, but the rollout is expected to continue in phases across different markets. No pricing changes or subscription requirements have been announced beyond standard Apple Music subscriptions.
