I am sure they will be as successful as VW's software revolution, cariad, that's ejected a couple of CEOs and almost brought down the CEO of the parent. Here's a link in English: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2023/05/volkswagens-troubled-software-division-is-getting-new-leadership-again/ https://arstechnica.com/cars/2023/05/volkswagens-troubled-so... but the full story is utterly scandalous.
I've seen zero evidence that GM is even slightly more competent in this area.
- ageitgey 3y agoThe funny part is that while VW's bad software has been the main negative review of their otherwise great EVs, the general perception online is "Carplay/Android Auto works great, so who cares?" I own a VW EV and use Android Auto with it. It's great. I would not have bought the car if it didn't support that. The real miracle is how well Android Auto/Car Play integrate with the car itself - speakers, microphones, steering wheel controls, heads-up display for directions - it all feels like a native experience.
