While Microsoft already has a Windows Embedded in-car computer system used in systems like Ford Sync, Microsoft is working on a new system which will project your windows phone onto your car’s dashboard using the new Mirrorlink standard supported by Nokia and Sony, and soon many others OEMs.

The system features a finger-friendly interface and a special selection of apps from the Windows Phone Store.

The system is at present a concept,but one which Microsoft is actively testing, and which will hopefully mean Windows Phone will not be left behind when Mirrorlink capable displays become common in cars in the near future.

See the video demo after the break.
