Combining Apple‘s forward-thinking design with one of the most iconic automobiles of all time, Volkswagen and Apple have teamed up to create the iBeetle. Exhibited at this year’s Shanghai Auto Show over the weekend, the collaborative vehicle comes in a variety of exterior color schemes with premium leather coating the entirety of the interior. Meant to fully tap into the capabilities of a driver’s iPhone, the car’s dashboard includes a specially-designed docking station along with a unique iPhone application and access to Spotify, Expert, Trainer, Postcard, Photo and Milestones – features that do everything from offering extended dashboard functions to one’s phone to allowing users to share route preferences, locations and photos via social media. VW has yet to release pricing and availability information regarding the “iCar,” so stay tuned for additional details.
