The Driver Is King Or Queen




One of the key tech trends with cars is that the 鈥榚lite鈥?features usually found in luxury vehicles has trickled down to everyday passenger cars that are more affordable. Lane-keeping tech, adaptive cruise, and even blind spot monitoring were reserved for the upper echelon only, those who could afford a Mercedes-Benz, a BMW, or an Audi. Audi goes a major step further with a similar display. In the A4, for example, you can see a Google Earth map that shows the terrain around you as you drive, helping you spot a lake off in the distance or track the edges of a mountain range. Nothing quite like that here, but the Digital Cockpit is a safety feature as much as a digital age perk. You can focus on the road ahead of you instead of glancing over at the center display, which can be distracting. What鈥檚 most interesting to me about the Digital Cockpit is that these customizations are going to become more and more common, and we鈥檙e going to see more and more extra displays in cars.





In reviewing the 2019 Subaru Ascent recently, that was my first discovery: that there are four different screens in the car available to the driver, including the digital rear-view. In the Jetta, the extra screen is handy because you can customize the settings. I preferred the view that showed me my speed in the lower right corner and my current music selection. The Jetta lets you customize the interior color, picking from 10 hues. You can also set the driver preferences for seat position and even climate control, save them under your own username and reactivate the settings in one click when you first jump in. In the near future, we might personalize things much further. Once we have multiple screens, we might decide to always show a camera view behind us, or choose one display that always shows your current music selection (along with a picture of the artist). I could even see using a dedicated screen for showing a real-time camera pointing toward the back to keep an eye on the kids. And, for a vehicle that can pull cargo, a view of the trailer you鈥檙e towing. The driver is king or queen, and in the future, we鈥檒l be able to customize every display to our own preferences - or disable them and just focus on the road ahead.

One goal: To find out which new technologies will lead us to fully self-driving cars.





Where can one purchase Silveraldo cars? Chevrolet currently does not make a Silverado cars they only produce the truck version.

A lot of the current Chevies are made in Mexico, and Canada. These are the same models they sell there, that they import for the U.S. I know that you can get the old style beetle there still. Actually, a lot the cars that are in Mexico, came from the U.S., anyway. A lot of people came here, and buy older cars, and take them down there to sell them. In what country are Ford Lincoln and Mercury cars manufactured? Mercury cars are no longer manufactured, with the final model coming off the production line in 2011. Ford have manufacturing plants worldwide in countries such as America, Germany, England and Mexico. Lincoln cars are manufactured in America, Mexico and Canada. Are there any cars in Chembakolli? Do you think People who make cars should make more non-pollution cars? People who make cars can produce any car type they wish(and customer wish). Accepting that car is a others' thing.. If it hurts environment so badly,you can refuse the car.
