The phrase denotes an in-vehicle infotainment system incorporating Google’s Android operating system and featuring a display screen measuring 12 inches diagonally. These systems typically replace or integrate with a vehicle’s factory-installed radio and control panel, offering advanced functionalities beyond basic audio playback.
Such systems provide enhanced user experience through applications like navigation, media streaming, and smartphone integration via platforms like Android Auto or similar protocols. A larger screen size offers improved visibility and ease of interaction, which contributes to safer driving by minimizing driver distraction. The integration of modern operating systems like Android brings access to a wide variety of apps and features previously unavailable in standard vehicle audio systems.
