My Renault Megane e-Tech has an Android Automotive-based system[1], and it feels quite nice compared to the other cars in its segment that I tried.

The interface feels smooth as a tablet, and I don't think they've done too many weird customizations. Overall quite pleased.

I am quite happy with Peugeot and Jaguar. Never tried Car Play or Android Auto and never will so, Bluetooth streaming is all I need. I heard all kind of horror stories from the latest VW software so. Which is funny, because Skoda seems to be a lot better despite being the same group.

Current Audi is.. fine? But still Android Auto is better. It would be hard to beat because my car is not going to be as integrated.

VW don’t even support CarPlay though. I am stuck with an android POS that literally does nothing other than take up dashboard space, and a phone glued to the front of it. Can’t even listen to music as the tuner has never worked, and Bluetooth has a range of about 2cm. Dealer said it’s working as intended.
