I'm sure you can do all that with bluetooth on the iPhone too. The point here is the touchscreen appears to be an extension of the phone.

If it's just an extension screen, with a sensibly small number of large icons relative to driving, it can be done (and has been done in the past) via wireless links. Much like the Sony Smartwatch, Pebble, or Galaxy Gear, the external screen is just a remote control for certain specific functions. But this is Apple, so perhaps they want to make sure the interface only works with their phones. That makes sense as they are designing the in-car interface in the first place.
