iDrive has an option to read out emails or texts.

Failing that, there's an app called "Tasker" and you can programme your phone to do pretty much anything you like - such as reading out messages. I used to do this when on my motorbike, so it'd read stuff that arrives to me through my bluetooth lid speakers. You can also get it to automatically respond saying that you're driving and will respond ASAP.

It can also be set to only do certain things when connected to certain wifi, or bluetooth, in an a certain geofenced location, etc. Pretty nifty.

Plenty of guides on how to write the codes for various scenarios online.
