Can you explain a little more? What expectations do Americans have of software that are unique to their country?

The UX of the car software is only a small portion. The actual car has a lot of software which isn't cultural.
The dashboard and UX of the car can be tailored to a culture, while the onboard processing remains the same - it's just one software update away. This is sort of a silver lining of removing physical dials and buttons and going all in with touch-screen.
