If you don't need traffic data, CoMaps (uses OpenStreet Map data).
If you do need traffic data (understandable) Magic Earth is what I use. It's unfortunately not fully open source, only the map data is from OSM, but I find the navigation good 95% of the time, sometimes you have to make your own judgement for if a route might have bad traffic. At least it's not Google or Apple, and no ads.
I don't do car play, so I have no idea about how that works.
I wish we had better alternatives ~~or that cars all exploded and we went to public transport and walkable cities~~
Supposedly comaps has carplay support as of like 2 months ago, according to a page on their website
Damn I need to try this
Thanks for the suggestions! I’ll look into it
