Ok cool. I can do all that on my phone already though. So it’s mostly just having a larger screen then?

Larger display with a better layout and steering wheel controls.

My personal truck doesn’t have Android auto or Apple car play (I thought it was something I could get when I bought it but turns out I was a year early, whoops) and my work truck has it. I 100% will not be buying any car that doesn’t have it as a feature. It’s not something I need all the time because for most drives just using Bluetooth is perfectly fine but if I want to use the GPS for anything Android auto and car play are just so much better than using your phone for that. Everything is kinda frivolous to though.

Stop looking at your phone while driving.

Also allows me to use media controls on my steering wheel with my phone.
