Today the majority of newly manufactured

cars come with keys that have radio

transmitters. When you get close to the car,

you press a button and the car unlocks.

With smart keys, you don’t even need to get

the key out of your pocket. Once you walk

close enough to the car, it unlocks

automatically.

USB ports are a great tech feature for a

vehicle to have.

You can charge your phone while you drive,

or you can connect an older mp3 player that

has your favorite songs.

If your car doesn't feature TV screens, you

can use the USB port to power a portable

DVD player.

USB PORTS

Bluetooth has made it possible to send and

receive phone calls and even dictate texts.

While it’s true that drivers need fewer

distractions, having the ability to make a

hands-free phone call is a practical tool to

have while on the road.

BLUETOOTH

Voice recognition software is becoming more

advanced with each passing year.

In the past, interacting with voice recognition

software could be extremely frustrating. You

usually had to speak a command multiple

times in order for the system to hear you.

Now advanced systems can grasp your

meaning even when you don't deliver the

exact command.

VOICERECOGNITION

Adaptive cruise control (ACC) gives a car the

ability to adjust its speed and distance based

on the vehicle that’s ahead in the lane.

It accomplishes this through the use of

sensors built into the vehicle.

While this tool is typically employed on

highways, some cars now have the ability to

use ACC in bumper-to-bumper traffic.
