Default Nav Integration...

As we're coming up on 2020 model years, just wondering if manufacturers finally allow us drivers to fully integrate cell phone technologies onto the Nav screen without purchasing their expensive built in Navigation.
Currently all my vehicles upon startup, recognize via bluetooth my cellphone & music files. It would be wonderful if when I hit the Nav button, it also recognizes that I want to use the always updated Google Map or Wave or whatever future program I set as default map program, instead of factory's built in Nav. All this is auto connected, while phone stays/remains in my cell phone holster on my body (or wife's phone stays in her purse), without us having to physical takes out phone & connect to USB wire, etc.
Both of our kids' latest vehicle purchases demands Apple Play/Android Auto features only & no built-in Nav option. But they still have to plug in a USB wire.
So does today's 2020 & beyond vehicles offer same technology via bluetooth, without physical wire connection?
Thanks,

I believe wireless CarPlay is available if your car supports it

Great.
Thanks for the info.
Guess we'll look for wireless CarPlay/AA feature on our next car purchase.
Also, look for integrated wireless charging pad, without wires...

2020 does not have wireless Apple CarPlay.
