My understanding is that Allwinner has excellent silicon. As Philippe has
pointed out there seems to be a path to building Tizen 3 already. What I
wonder is, how relevant is the Allwinner SoC to the automotive industry?

Is it possible to hook up automotive specific networks? Is there a history
of Allwinner working in the environment that a car is expected to be
exposed to, for example high temperatures and low temperatures? Is there
commercial support from Allwinner in the automotive industry that a car
maker might be able to hire in significant numbers on location? Is there an
automotive board that would have the recommended peripherals to support
automotive that is available for use as a sample board that is close to
production hardware? Something along the lines of Renesas' R-Car M2 or
similar?

IVI is still part of the automotive domain and while it can share a
significant amount of software with other domains, there are still some
automotive specific requirements that IVI has to fulfil. Can the Allwinner
fulfil those?

Regards,

Jeremiah
