Google Chrome is coming to your car


Polestar has been waiting for Chrome for a long time, the CEO says.

This feature was already available to cars with Google built-in and now will be available to Android Auto users, starting with the Ford Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning “in the coming months.” Other EVs will be eligible in the near future. Polestar CEO Thomas Ingenlath said the company had been “waiting a long time” for Chrome browsing to come to its cars, offering the Vivaldi browser as a holdover until it was ready. The new features come at an uncertain time for in-car software, with safety experts warning about distracting interfaces and major automakers like GM restricting access to phone-mirroring programs like Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
