This template is useful for presenting information, such as location and
reservation details, and for taking action based on data.

This template can be embedded in the
[Tab template](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/templates/tab-template) to provide tabbed navigation, or included in the
[Map + Content template](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/templates/map-content-template) to provide a pane on a map. When embedded in a
Map + Content template, images aren't displayed.  
**Includes:**

- Optional [header](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/components/header)
- Up to 2 [buttons](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/components/button), where one can be designated as [primary](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/components/button#primary) (optional)
- Up to 4 non-actionable [rows](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/components/row) (1 row is mandatory)
- Optional large image (see example)
| **Note:** This template highlights actions and information. For quick messages with less detail, use the Message template. For long messages, use the Long Message template.
