One thing that automakers and most new-car shoppers can agree on is that the roughly five-year development cycle of a new vehicle is unacceptable. That gestation period means, among other things, that much of the onboard infotainment technology is obsolete by the time a new vehicle rolls into the showroom, especially compared to a smartphone that can be updated minute by minute.

Data aggregator INRIX is hoping to change all that with its purchase of OpenCar, an automotive software company that has previously worked with Mazda.
