If you want Next-Gen infotainment with Assistant and Maps, you need to buy a new shiny Volvo car... or, you know, just use your Android phone and hack a Raspberry Pi and install Crankshaft on it.
Crankshaft does all of the above, plus it doesn't talk to the cloud, doesn't require you to be connected to "the cloud," doesn't collect your data, doesn't ask you to buy a new expensive car, doesn't nudge you to subscribe to any service, and has a stallmanism approach to software freedom.
Disclaimer: I made it.

But we hope you give it a try and have fun with it when it's safe to do so." It's nowhere near the commercial applicability car manufacturers require. Nobody really cares about private users because thats not where the money is..
