Default GM is dropping Android Auto to make way for Gemini

TL;DR
  • GM will drop Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support as it transitions to a centralized computing platform.
  • The automaker will integrate Google’s Gemini AI into its vehicles starting in 2026, offering a smarter, conversational assistant.
  • Gemini will be available as an over-the-air update via the Play Store for OnStar-equipped vehicles (2015 and newer).
  • GM will also test other AI models from firms like OpenAI and Anthropic, while keeping user data private.

General Motors is taking another major step away from smartphone projection systems. Having previously dropped support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay across its EVs, the automaker has now confirmed that it will also ditch support for these technologies in its future gas-powered models. Instead, the company is developing a centralized computing platform that will serve as the backbone of its next-generation in-car software. At the heart of this system will be Google’s Gemini.
