Not that I think this is a Twitter-in-a-weekend project, but… what is a car infotainment system doing?

Show a map, working Bluetooth drivers (obviously the white whale of the modern world), control a music playlist, and route a phone call. Aren’t there already standard protocols to communicate with a phone for all of these things already?

Auto adjusting other parts of the car based on what is happening, e.g. my car reduces fan speed when a call comes in.

Typically cars come with their own complete voice control system.

Customers expect much of the car to be accessible remotely and well, my GM Bolt EUV is far behind everyone else in this regard.
