ESP32 / STM32 can do a whole heck of a lot, they're getting popular in modular synths now too. AFAIK a lot of vehicles use RTOSes for anything related to driving / vehicle stability, but I think they can use mostly whatever for infotainment, and that "whatever" seems to be largely low / mid-range stuff running absolutely garbage software that only gets updated if NHTSA makes them.

That checks out. I've contemplated getting one of those CANbus/ESP32 combos but I'm just not feeling lucky enough to muck around with my car's network for grins.
