As technology develops some of the most advanced technology is being implemented into car models.…


Car that changes colour with mood


Always find it difficult to select an exterior car colour when choosing your next car? Well now you don’t have to make the decision and settle with one colour as the Peugeot RCZ model changes colour with your mood.


It’s all down to some very advanced scientific technology.  By using a specially developed coating, it’s able to alter the molecular structure of the paint to emit light at varying wavelengths changing the colour of the car to reflect how the driver is feeling. Heat reactive sensors are built into the steering wheel which read the driver’s body temperature to estimate their mood and then changes the colour of the car accordingly. Want a demonstration? Watch this video here to see just how cool this technology really is.


Disappearing Car Door


It may seem a little unnecessary and something that has been invented for lazy people, but whether you want to admit it or not, a disappearing car door is pretty cool. One thing’s for sure, you will definitely get some attention when you turn up to somewhere in a car that has disappearing doors. But believe it or not, it has more advantages than you initially might think. Whether you are always trying to squeeze out of the car door without bashing the car parked next to you or always struggling to clamber in the back of the car to get your child out of their car seat, you won’t have these problems with a car with disappearing doors. And convenience isn’t the only advantage, it is also great in terms of safety, for example access to drivers and passengers and/or their escape is greatly enhanced in serious crash situations.

In car apps


With the growth of smartphone ownership and ever increasing interest in social media, we knew it wouldn’t be long until our cars could feature their own apps. For instance Toyota’s Entune includes built in apps that stream data through a smart phone. All you have to do is download the Entune mobile app to your phone and using your phones data plan, Bluetooth and wireless technology, Entune connects you to a variety of in-car applications, whether this may be searching the web with voice recognition, listening to internet radio, making restaurant reservations or checking the traffic and weather as you drive. Lots of car models have similar features these days and they are continually evolving, so if you’re looking for your next car make sure you get a thorough explanation of what’s available with any model that you are considering.


Hands free entry


Hands free entry allows you to unlock the car door without having to remove your keys from your pocket or purse because it features a sensor that detects when the key it close to the car. Okay so your opinion may be that this is also a little lazy, but it’s great for those times when your hands are full or when you’re in a rush and your car keys are buried at the bottom of your bag.


Heated steering wheels


Might not be the most exciting piece of technology that cars these days have to offer, but a heated steering wheel is certainly a nice luxury on a cold morning drive. What’s even better is that they have become more available for drivers shopping for more mainstream cars that don’t have an enormous price tag, including the Ford Fusion and Kia Forte.


What are the costs?


It’s safe to say that owning a car with some of the coolest technology doesn’t come cheap, but at the same time it doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to be a millionaire to own a car with some awesome gadgets. You may be surprised at just how many models there are available that feature some pretty cool technology that are very much affordable.  What’s more, there are plenty of options available to buy the model you want for a smaller price tag or to pay for a car without having to pay a massive amount in one go. For instance, going through a car dealer can often be a lot cheaper than buying directly from the car brand manufacturer. Furthermore, car finance is a great option to use. Credo Asset Finance, who offer Car finance in Norwich, are just one example who can provide you with the car of your choice for affordable monthly payments.
