> Android OEM head units started appearing in 2012: https://www.androidauthority.com/android-powered-oem-car-ste https://www.androidauthority.com/android-powered-oem-car-ste... Yes, but these were Android tablets fitted into head units. Not Androind Auto - a UI specifically designed to be used while driving which would make the Android OS liable for legal issues. > It's really just my opinion that Apple wouldn't go out of their way to port software to a different platform with no PR-friendly purpose. They don't need to. The ask in this comment thread was to have the CarPlay UI on the phone itself - the phone being an iPhone.
