Isn’t there bluetooth? My wife’s van predates all this car/phone integration things, but bluetooth still works just great. You shouldn’t be changing the channel while driving or whatever it is that those excra tools give you. (my car features a cassette deck which is annoying when I want to listen to something, but I almost never drive so it works)
Yes, there is Bluetooth for audio, but with smartphones and especially Android Auto/Apple CarPlay I’ve gotten used to having a nice large map in my car with real-time traffic and up-to-date maps, not paying a fee to the manufacturer to update the maps on the screen in the car, maps that are already outdated when added and no real-time traffic unless I pay an additional monthly fee to SiriusXM which only gives coverage to certain roads in certain cities.

I think navigation on the car screen is the main benefit. I also just use Bluetooth for audio, but a map on the bigger screen would be really nice.
