GM is spicing up road trips by unlocking over 200 Android apps, including YouTube, for its newer vehicles with Google built-in. This is a big deal because GM is ditching Android Auto and CarPlay in favor of a fully integrated experience using Android Automotive apps.
With the latest software update, GM vehicles will offer an expanded selection of entertainment options right from the dashboard. This means access to a huge range of apps like Disney+, Hulu, and more, directly from the front passenger and backseat screens. So, whether you’re parked or cruising along, everyone in the car can enjoy their personalized playlists and watchlists.

The new lineup includes popular streaming services like AMC+, Tubi, and YouTube Kids, making any drive a lot more entertaining. While the main screen hosts these apps when you’re parked, select GM models, like the Chevrolet Tahoe and Cadillac Escalade, will also support rear-seat viewing. With more apps like Spotify and Amazon Music joining soon, there’s something for everyone. If you’re into streaming, you might also wonder if you need HDMI 2.1 for the best experience.
GM’s move towards a Google built-in experience is exciting for tech-savvy drivers and passengers alike. Keep an eye out for more updates as this entertainment lineup continues to grow!
