GM Offers Siri Steering Wheel Control on Chevy Spark & Sonic

The Chevy Spark and Sonic are the first vehicles to integrate Siri with the car, allowing drivers to activate Siri from the steering wheel for hands free control of the iPhone 4S or iPhone 5 on iOS 6.

Apple announced the?enhanced?support for in-car infotainment systems at WWDC 2012, and the Chevy MyLink system in the 2013 Spark and Sonic is the first to arrive with Siri Eyes Free support.

The Eyes Free functionality?is?available?on the Spark 1LT and 2LT models as well as the Sonic LTZ and RS models, which will arrive in early 2013.

Chevy Siri Eyes Free Spark

The Chevy Spark and Sonic are the first to support Siri Eyes Free.

While using Siri Eyes Free mode, users will hold a button on the steering wheel that activates Siri and passes the voice command through the system to Siri to make calls, send texts and?other functions like playing an iTunes song.

In Eyes Free mode Siri cannot perform complex tasks that require opening a web page. Hopefully Siri can still be used to open apps, so users can switch from Rhapsody to Audible in the middle of a long trip.?The audio and commands are passed via Bluetooth through the MyLink system to the iPhone 4S or iPhone 5.
