Maybe I'm a lone voice here, but my Skoda has QNX and it's...not very good? It takes an age to start up, and an age to load navigation mode to a point where it's ready to start being used. Bluetooth integration is rudimentary (in the context of the age of the vehicle) and unpredictable. The touch UI is spongy and easy to make mistakes, even if you're the passenger giving it your full undivided attention. The voice command system is almost unusable.

It's not terrible, don't get me wrong. But I don't understand why anyone would be writing any lovesongs about it.

The OE had a lot of input on how QNX was built into their vehicles. It’s not a turn-key system that they buy off the shelf from blackberry. I’m honestly surprised BB didn’t start putting their name on some of the good implementations.
