I think if you remove internet connection from the car and use it with a phone with graphene os is it would be OK but I could be wrong.
If you're using the android Auto app then I don't see how the OS even matters. You can turn off Google location services but I've never tried that with android Auto.
You have to sacrifice something. It's generally not possible to use cloud-based services while maintaining total privacy - at least not in a way that's convenient.
Here's what you can do - get a car with minimal tech built into it's head unit. Get a new head unit and get a car audio shop to swap it out for you. This will void your car warranty if it's new, but some HUs have navigation built in (not Internet dependent ) and support simple Bluetooth .
If you want full Android Auto capability then idk if it's even possible to meet all your stated requirements.
The os lets you revoke permissions from it.
