The cable generally works for Apple CarPlay if your car supports CarPlay via USB and you connect the iPhone via USB. It is important that the cable has a USB-A connection on one side and USB-C on the other, which is the case with this cable. However, Apple recommends using an original Apple USB cable to avoid compatibility issues.

As the cable supports USB 2.0, it is sufficient for data transfer as CarPlay does not require USB 3.0 speed. If your car only supports CarPlay wirelessly, the cable is not relevant.

To summarise: The cable can be used for Apple CarPlay if your car supports CarPlay via USB-A and the iPhone is connected via USB-C, but Apple recommends using an original Apple cable for optimal compatibility.
