It would an awful lot less. Being in millions of cars every day would raise their Q rating tremendously and the amount of words needed is a lot smaller than you would think. Street names are repeated very often from one community to the next. You have no idea how many elm streets, main streets and Martin Luther King Blvds there are across the nation. They could also easily cut the vocabulary by having celebs provide bumper comments like 'turn left 200 yards up ahead' and using the same digital voice for obscure street names. Most of it can be digitized from syllables these days. cost would be tiny.. especially when you get down to lesser celebrities or celebrities looking to rebound their careers.... and revshare for voice actors per sale of their voice would probably keep costs down as well.
And your idea is... ?
