OEMs still need a UI to control their non-CarPlay/AA stuff.
Jobs depend on that work so they probably pitch more functionality.
I agree that CP/AA should be in every car for that uniform experience but I do like UI/UX that does smart stuff like turn down the high AC so you can hear the incoming phone call.
Does this mean we can get a PHEV (or a regular hybrid) Tiguan? I thought the (presumably high-trim) version I sat in at the LA Auto Show was just lovely and that it would be that much more lovely w/ some form of electrification.
