When Google built-in is running the entire car without a phone...I fail to see how CarPlay Ultra integrates deeper? I log in as if the car is a tablet. It has it's own cell phone data connection, provides Hotspot for everybody, and I can literally see the OS apps that run the car systems. After seeing the video, it is exactly like CarPlay ultra without the phone requirement.
I just have to talk to it to execute Windows down, temperature change, etc. It's just like the BMW AI except it always works and there's zero wait. 😅

I guess I'll need to experience CarPlay ultra but Google built-in runs the instrument cluster too. It's seamless. The difference I see is more customization... But then again, it's Honda... And they're signed up as a CarPlay ultra adopter too. I know my wife feels like the car has everything the BMW can do now in a much simpler package. It seems like a huge hit with everybody that wants to check it out.
