Apps are already making their way into cars.
Ford has embraced the connected car movement with its Sync platform, which integrates apps like Amazon Cloud Player, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal Live into the car dashboard.
And the Tesla Model S touchscreen connects to the Internet for access to things like maps, restaurant reviews, and movie times.
But by 2017, twenty percent of cars in the U.S. and Western Europe will be app-enabled, according to analysts over at Juniper Research.
That means we'll have more cars on the road with "infotainment" features through smartphone tethering and in-car systems, according to Juniper.
