Spotify seems to be testing a revitalized Car Mode

After removing Driving View last year with no clear alternative, Spotify is allegedly allowing certain Android users test out a new, voice-focused car mode. According to a report from 9to5Google, Car Mode looks more like a version of Spotify's standard UI that has been adjusted to make short operations simpler, rather than the hyper-simplified Car View that came before it. While the latest version of Spotify Car Mode has a tab that allows you to browse your recently played music, the search screen has been replaced with a voice control option.

The control interface for what's now playing is comparable to Spotify's standard mode, so you should be able to employ muscle memory. The resemblance to the standard UI overcomes a problem that some users had with the former Car View - when Spotify "retired" it, several commentators expressed their dissatisfaction, claiming that it took more of their focus to operate since it was so foreign. The exam does not appear to be available to all people. The app asked whether I was in a car and if I wanted to launch Google Maps when I opened Spotify on my Pixel 2 while connected to my car's Bluetooth.
