Abstract
A method makes data available in a motor vehicle. A user query is entered using an input device of the motor vehicle. A plurality of sources are searched for data corresponding to the user query, and the search result associated with the found data is displayed by a display device of the motor vehicle. Respective applications of the motor vehicle are assigned to the search results by a data processing device. The applications are designed to reflect the data formats associated with the search results. Only these applications are displayed by the display device. A corresponding system makes the data available in the motor vehicle.
