Leaving as a draft as we should only merge this after our current build receives approval
@dshokouhi General Motors makes their Google Built In emulator available via their developer portal - https://developer.gm.com/in-vehicle-apps this has all sensors enabled on it and would be viable for testing.
Love to see this being merged. Anyone have any idea how long it takes to become available on the play store?

this weeks beta push so 2024.10.2, every saturday evening all recently merged commits get pushed to the weekly beta
@dshokouhi just installed the update and have my sensors enabled. Very happy about this new feature.
I noticed from the commit that CarSensorManager class doesn't read value for range_remaining property. This is exposed via androidx in the [getRangeRemainingMeters](https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/car/app/hardware/info/EnergyLevel#getRangeRemainingMeters()) call. Is there any plan to add this too?
Regardless, very happy about this new content.

Merged PRs are not a place for feature requests to be made.
Summary
Allows automotive sensors to be enabled in the play store build by enabling via the server side
User will get a notification to enable and will then be prompted to enable and grant permission upon selecting the notification.
Also catches the below crash I experienced using a new automotive emulator

Any other notes
The polestar emulator no longer seems to work so I have switched to an Android 13 API emulator that works pretty well and no longer crashes or requires a weird play store update. Process is pretty smooth as well.
