🚗If you haven’t shopped for a new car in a while, you might be surprised at how much technology is packed into today’s models. These features aren’t just about convenience—they can also improve safety, comfort, and the overall driving experience.
Here are seven tech upgrades that first-time buyers often fall in love with.
1. Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
These systems let you connect your smartphone to your car’s infotainment screen, giving you hands-free access to maps, music, and calls. It’s safer, easier, and quickly becomes something you can’t live without. If you need help connecting, just ASK "Uncle" Bill
2. Backup Camera with Dynamic Guidelines
A standard in most new cars, a backup camera gives you a clear view when reversing. Many also have guidelines that move with your steering wheel, making parking in tight spaces and backing onto main street easier.
3. Blind Spot Monitoring
Sensors keep an eye on areas you can’t see and alert you if another vehicle is in your blind spot. It’s a simple feature that can help if you are changing lanes or un-aware of a vehicle about to pass you on either side.
4. Keyless Entry & Push-Button Start
Unlock your car and start the engine without taking the key fob out of your pocket or bag. It’s a small convenience that makes a big difference in everyday use. Remember, for safety reasons only the drivers door unlocks when you gain entry.
5. Adaptive Cruise Control
This smart upgrade maintains your set speed on the highway while automatically adjusting to keep a safe distance from the car ahead. Perfect for long trips and heavy traffic. If they slow down, you slow down as well, automatically!
6. Wireless Charging Pads
No more tangled cords—just set your phone on the pad and it charges as you drive. It’s a neat feature that keeps your cabin clutter-free. This feature is great with today's wireless connectivity.
7. Voice Command Systems
From changing the radio station to setting your next destination, voice commands let you control key features without taking your hands off the wheel. Built in systems by Nissan, Google, and Amazon to name a few brings the personal touch and control inside your vehicle.
