Volvo to integrate Android OS with Play Store and services directly into Sensus infotainment system

Announced at Google I/O, Volvo and Audi are the first two car makers who will be integrating Android OS directly into the car's head units, thereby giving a near-smartphone experience.

The Volvo Sensus interface is being retained as a custom skin built on top of the Android platform, which is great seeing that it is already quite good. The Android-based system premieres in a couple of years, when it will start appearing in production models. For a full demo of the new system, see the video embedded below:
