Comfort and Convenience
A multifunction steering wheel carries switches on the rim's spokes, so the wheel becomes a control surface as well as a steering input. Commands for the audio system or on-board computer travel through wiring in the column.
Safety and Driver Assistance
ABS works at the wheel the brakes are locking, pulsing pressure so the tyre keeps turning and steering still bites. Electronic stability program instead addresses yaw, correcting a car already sliding off its intended line.
Multimedia and Connectivity
An AUX input takes an analogue audio signal that a device has already decoded and amplified, so the head unit simply passes it to the speakers. Track selection and volume stay with the connected player.
