Most Popular New Toyota Car Technology Options

New cars come with options that you never even thought of as possible just a few years ago. Heck, your average new Toyota now sports more wiring, computers, sensors and gizmos than airplanes used to have. But what do most people really pick? Well, after a little research, here’s what seems to top most people’s wish lists. Entertainment You could really go to town here. Since we all seems to carry a lot of our content with us, an MP3 interface and charging ports are big hits. For folks with kids, an in-car DVD system is just the ticket to keep the little ones entertained. For adults there is satellite radio, CD players and high powered amps and upgraded speakers keep things rocking. Communications Having a great built-in navigation system is a big deal for many people, especially those who travel by car a lot. Having the Bluetooth system for interfacing with a smart phone is also huge in that it improves both driver safety and ease of use, keeping both hands on the wheel, as they should be. Driving Aids This is where the sci-fi really starts to come into play. Parking assist systems now help folks fit into tight spaces or actually do the job automatically. Intelligent cruise control uses radar technology to not just monitor speed but the actual distance between your car and the one ahead of it. And even the humble headlight has been updated with Xenon bulbs, LEDs and better halogens. Just imagine what will be available in another few years.
