From what I've seen Volvo has it isn't like Apple Carplay or Android Auto. Rather it's a self contained android device

Correct. Poorly named, but Android Automotive is the equivalent of the iDrive software that runs in the BMW center panel (in the absence of any other user device)...CarPlay or Android Auto could still overlay that assuming the carmaker supports it.
Yes, but Volvo/Polestar have just started the OTAs to add CarPlay support.
