It is not ready for a Linux phone. It's barely ready for Linux on PC. The phone market would be much smaller. I'd love a Linux phone but I would need a android auto or carplay equivalent or compatible interface.
Not sure but waydroid might be able to run android auto, I have a device running postmarketOS and Waydroid, unfortunately my vehicle is too old for android auto but if I'm around any friend's vehicles, I'll try it out and see if it works.
--edit--
just checked my device, I think android auto comes installed with the android image that waydroid boots, which at the current time is Android 13, based on LineageOS 20 it looks like.
