You may be right about the copyrights in the individual unit, but I was talking about the underlying car OS in response to the commenter who said “most car systems run android”. QNX is a real-time operating system which is required for something like a car. Another for instance would be Microsoft Auto which Ford used before switching to QNX.
In general a modern car will have dozens or hundreds of computers running their own software and communicating in a sort of API fashion usually through something like CAN bus. Most of these systems can’t afford to wait on something to boot when you start your car.
In very general terms we are talking about the main difference between an Arduino and a Raspberry Pi.
