Why not make a physical connection (power/network) and define a form factor for entertainment system with or without screen and speakers and let other companies design something to fit the space available. I don't understand why no one does this instead of selling cars full of crappy software that can't be upgraded.
Double DIN already exists with fairly standard plugs in the back
This is not plug and play. I want plug and play. You could even make an entertainment system which just runs using a phone connected using usb or bt.. which would make it just like android auto but without needing the car to support anything from google.
That's what cars always used to have. Made them easily stealable though.
This can be fixed by locking the device to a specific car .. by the user.
