Automakers that build their own native infotainment systems are losing the user interface wars to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto based on distracted driving ratings, according to a study by AAA.

The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety published its sixth annual ranking of infotainment systems and their level of distraction. The rankings are based on drivers performing tasks such as texting, programming navigation and making calls. The goal is to have low demand on the driver when performing those tasks.

In a nutshell, CarPlay and Android Auto were 5 seconds, or 24 percent faster, than a vehicle’s native system when making a call and 15 seconds, or 31 percent faster, when navigating.
