I still don't understand the benefit to an individual customer, and I don't buy that this implementation will be less distracting than Android Auto.
Once the bugs are worked out, Android Auto users will still continue to see user improvements much faster than GM's custom Android build. It's only a matter of time until Google sunsets support for GM's current vehicles running their custom build. At that point, GM will either use that as leverage to get you to buy a new vehicle, and/or cave to user demand and reinstate Android Auto support in newer vehicles.
