I still don't understand why car brands don't just use Android Automotive anyway. Most native infotainment systems in cars still look and feel like they're from the early 2000s.
That 55-inch interface they're showing off really looks like some weird 2006-ish concept.
Edit: Apparently, it's running "Google built-in" which means that this particular system is based on Android Automotive OS and it's just running some proprietary launcher on top.
I wonder how long before they stop pushing updates to it
Subscription based for a few years z then they'll just drop it
