And how will automated systems work when one is abroard? Year before last I had occasion to drive from Antwerp to Lower Normandy ... I wonder how it would have handled that ... I live in Spain (Catalunya mixed with the French side) and can assure they work perfectly well. The last time I looked we ...

The devices are fitted to most new cars. The important thing to remember is that they can be switched off and their use is optional. In use they can be over ridden if needs be; sometimes I use them and at other times I don't. Not yet they are not. I think you are talking about speed limiters that Y...

Similar to Mark above, I prefer the Infotainment system provided by the manufacturer - in my case Audi, to the Android Auto offering. It may be that the Audi Virtual Cockpit doesn't suit it particularly well, but then I found it also not to my liking when running it in OH's Golf. It may simply be a...

Will manufacturers start installing hands-free phone brackets? Do not the wireless charging shelves do this? But then I think Android Auto needs a cable connection.
