I tried Android Auto back when it was first coming out and it was such a slow buggy piece of shit that I have always just looked at my phone for directions instead of connect to Android Auto even when the car supports it.
You should try it again. It's exponentially better than it was when it first launched almost 11 years ago.
The slowness was mostly a hardware issue. It's basically like driving a second monitor, and a lot of the slower phones struggled with it early on.
They still manage to break it a out once a year. I've had two updates that made it so audio didn't work when plugged into USB. It also took them at least two months in each case to bother fixing it.
