FWIW I was sad about no Android Auto on my 2017 QV, but I have put in a cupholder cell phone holder thing and installed the Android Auto app on my phone, and now I'm perfectly happy. I have a 1ft USB-c cable plugged into the USB and I set my Android Auto app to launch automatically when it connects to bluetooth. To use Android Auto, you have to take out your phone and plug it into the USB anyway, so this way I get the exact same functionality, using my phone screen instead of the infotainment screen. Of course, the difference for me between 2017 and 2018 was $4k, which made my decision a lot easier. For $1,500, I don't know.
