Yes, I forgot you don't need cell reception for your phone's GPS positioning to work.

Am I correct in thinking that you could access cell-free nav through the Android Auto interface so you'd see it on the infotainment screen and hear directions through the car's sound system? Because using nav strictly on a mobile when driving is a PITA.
