    I want 3 things in a car navmod:

    1. Decent enough sized screen for Android auto to show me the map. My 2018 Nissan leaf is probably the smallest I’d go on this, but I wouldn’t even double it

    2. For the love of GOD could we let me upgrade the unit, or force android auto to use my powerful-enough-for-this-purpose phone handle rendering the video feed? My pixel can handle an external monitor at 1440p no problem, I’d love to give the shitty PC in my car a break from scrolling maps at 3fps

    3. Physical buttons for everything HVAC, can honestly take or leave the volume and tuner knobs as long as they’re put on the steering wheel

      This 100% I hope other brands will follow with Škoda’s new smart dials (or even go further)

        I’m totally onboard with this. Unless I’m mistaken in my country the law still forbids looking into a screen and away from the road, which is now needed to drive many cars!
