It makes sense for automotive manufacturers to embrace technologies from companies such as Google and Apple with its Apple CarPlay
For years automakers have struggled with bringing a compelling software and hardware integration into vehicles that are both functional and intuitive to the driver.
Tech companies such as Google already have years of experience in cementing their technology to computing devices which are loved by many people all over the world.
The mid-sized 2015 Sonata gets high marks for its fuel economy, comfort and quality making this an excellent buy, for someone who is looking for a reliable vehicle.
It now has an added level of features with the inclusion of Android Auto that makes it a compelling contender to the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, Nissan Altima and others.
We can expect to see more cars in the future adopt Android Auto as the infotainment sector continues to evolve.
