    The author makes several statements without committing any logical fallacies. However, there are a few instances of inflammatory rhetoric and an appeal to authority. The author states that 'Some people believe that Android Automotive has made Android Auto a redundant product.' This is an example of an appeal to ignorance fallacy as the author does not provide evidence to support this claim. Additionally, the author states that 'Google wants to make Android Automotive feel more like the real-deal Android.' This is an example of an appeal to authority fallacy as it implies that Google's intentions are inherently trustworthy or valid. However, these instances do not significantly impact the overall quality of the article and do not detract from its informational value. Therefore, I am scoring this article a 95.
