They really should get together and come up with some standard protocol, instead of having cars use proprietary protocols tied to a specific mobile OS.

If they did, Apple wouldn't adopt it and we'd be in exactly the same place as we are now.

Probably. At least it would allow connecting to your car without iOS or Google apps.
