I still maintain that if people want another hour in the evening, they 
can get up an hour earlier.  Why do they think they need to change the 
clocks?  Some people just can't deal with reality and need someone else 
to make their decisions for them.  OK, I will step off my soapbox now.  :-)

Many car manufacturers are leveraging and improving already existing cellular data systems in their cars to provide software and firmware updates over the air.  I suspect the issue is more the long supply chain lead times…there is a several year lag between deciding to have a feature and getting the car hardware and software out to the public.

In principle, if the position is known, the time zone and DST can be looked up. But since the software in the car is not routinely updated and the various national, state, and provincial legislatures like to monkey with this, look up is not feasible.
