> Legacy auto gave up their UI to Google and Apple, they gave up a lot of value

Define "value".



Opportunities to charge + advertise to you, while providing a worse service.


I disagree about worse service. I really love the ui on tesla and rivian. When I've had rental cars with carplay or aa it's been fine. The latter two mobile apps have also added more 3rd party streaming services. Tesla & rivian had added things too.


Every time Tesla updates their UI there's no end of complaints about random changes or how oft-used functionality is now moved to obscure menus behind small tap targets.


AFAIK Tesla only had 1 major UI update during past decade


The question isn't about major UI updates. See, for example, this: https://www.thedrive.com/tech/43710/teslas-v11-update-blaste...
