Volkswagen has announced the imminent launch of a branded automotive app store designed to cater to a wide range of automotive brands. In this store, drivers will find familiar third-party apps optimized for in-car use.

Initially, the store will have popular apps like TikTok, Spotify, Amazon Music, Yelp and others that are optimized for in-car use and designed to launch from the infotainment screen. The app store will be launched for some new Audi models this year, and later extended to other vehicles and brands, including Volkswagen, Porsche, Lamborghini and Bentley.

According to the company, the app store will be available this summer on the 2023 Audi A4, A5, Q5, A6, A, A8, Q8 e-tron and e-tron GT. Apps available at launch span a wide range of categories, including music and podcasts, video conferencing, weather, parking, electric vehicle charging, gaming, news, smart home integration, and more.

It is also reported that not all apps in the group store will be available for every VW Group brand. For example, the Audi and Bentley brands will receive apps that are different from those that Volkswagen cars rely on.

Dirk Hilgenberg, CEO of Cariad, the VW Group’s own software division, says hundreds of apps are in development for the store.

“The group app store is just one piece of the puzzle in the entire input infotainment stack, but it is very important,” Hilgenberg said.

Tesla has released a limited edition Cybertruck-themed GigaBier beer. Beer is offered for $30.

Previously, The Boring Company offered flamethrowers and Burnt Hair cologne with the smell of burnt hair, and Tesla released a Cyberwhistle in the spirit of Cybertruck. Of course, there was Tesla branded tequila. By the way, at the time of its announcement, they also thought that this was an April Fool’s joke.
