Android Auto to soon make its way to motorcycles
After Android Authority did some digging in the new version of Android Auto, more specifically version 13.5.150204, they found several hints of Google preparing to accommodate motorcycles as well.
As of now, Android Auto is available only on specific car brands, but that's likely to change. In Android Auto's settings, the word "car(s)" is replaced with "vehicle(s)", but aside from that subtle hint, they also found an in-app icon of the Indian brand TVS motors. This brand specializes in manufacturing motorcycles, scooters and mopeds. Some other new icons have also made an appearance such as Lucid, Geely, Leap Motor.
Additionally, the report suggests there will be added support for higher-resolution screens like 2560 x 1440p and 3840 x 2160p. Right now, Android Auto supports only 1920 x 1080 screens.
There are traces of Gemini as well. It looks like Google is finally preparing to integrate its AI assistant Gemini into Android Auto.

phones have the biggest screens that you can fit on a bike. one built-in holder with charger should do the trick. so, you won't have to clean the screen every time to get on your bike.
