As far as I can tell Android Automotive is open source and free to use. So no, they aren't licensing the core from Google.
BMW hasn't released enough information to understand why they are doing this, but iDrive 8 (the latest version of their in-house Linux based software) is widely regarded as one of the best car software systems. Which granted, is a low bar, but it's still pretty solid.
