Why not make a physical connection (power/network) and define a form factor for entertainment system with or without screen and speakers and let other companies design something to fit the space available. I don't understand why no one does this instead of selling cars full of crappy software that can't be upgraded.

That's what cars always used to have. Made them easily stealable though.

This can be fixed by locking the device to a specific car .. by the user.
