In 2014, Google has started its big plan for putting Android in cars and this Android OS will run on hardware that created into the car rather than on Smart device.

It simples shows that Google lands with Android-Based Infotainment System to compete its rival, Apple. Moreover, Google also has to consider domestic car makers before targeting other car makers. We, the people, will remain doubtful until we see demo for same.

This tie up will happen on 7th of January in Las Vegas; however, we are not sure whether or not Google will make this partnership as official. We couldn’t have more details about this announcement, but we might hear this news from Google soon.

Audi's head of product strategy Filip Brabec told The Wall Street Journal, “Cars are becoming more complex, and with the computing power that is going into vehicles, you need that type of system in the car”. He also told that vehicles in future will require computer operating systems for support different types of applications and functions that every person wants to access while driving.
