1) An API is intended to provide access to a software through a programmable interface. In this case, the software (google map) has an ability to send information to a car, and it would be useful to have a programmable interface to this function. 2) Not only is it not easy, the parameters suggests that this is not possible without google's authorization. 3) You cannot send a link to a webpage to a car. In fact you cannot send anything to a car, except to use the special google map function. That is the only thing that the cars are designed to receive.
