With due respect, that tells me that you know NOTHING about the present and potential use of Echo or the Echo Dot (Alexa).
Fun fact, if your car has wifi, you can fit an Echo Dot in the cup holder and connect it to your cars speakers through Bluetooth (or auxiliary jack).
No wifi? Use your phones hotspot, works just as well.
Says the guy that has never owned one

This is exactly what I've been waiting for. I recently installed a Nest thermostat, and wanted a few Echo Dots to enable voice control of the Nest. I was traveling during Prime Day, so I missed the deal then.
I do this....use my phone's hotspot and enjoy Alexa in the car with an Echo Dot. Considering the dot was only $30 off craigslist, well worth it. Just plugs into my Aux jack and uses the lighter plug for power. Of course, you have to wait for it to boot up when the car turns on, since it's a cold start - but that's only 30-60 seconds so easy peasy.
Mine takes about 30 seconds as well, but it's well worth the wait to have Alexa working through the cars speakers. I only wish Alexa could help with navigation...

I find that google is better at some things and Alexa better at others. We use google in the car and Alexa at home. The little ones love to ask google what sounds certain animals make. The cougar was hilarious, sounded more like a person then an animal

Alexa is better for home automation
