The car's CAN bus is always driven by a highly available real-time OS.

The car's infotainment is often Android-based.

Android (and to some extent Linux in general) is not suitable for hard real-time applications.

Exactly. The person I was replying to is overstating things, and giving too much credit to Android. Misrepresenting.
