Jeep is a huge contender when it comes to technology features. Not only are they fun to use, but they also help keep drivers safe while on the road. With so much to offer, it can be overwhelming not knowing which tech to choose. To makes things simpler, we’ve compiled a list of the must-have tech for your next Jeep below.
1. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
This wouldn’t be a tech list without acknowledging the two big players in the mobile arena. Jeep partners with both to make sure that its customers will always be able to connect their smartphones to their vehicles, and the sheer ease in which you can do this is astounding. Hands-free apps make navigating, answering calls, and listening to your favorite music a safe and enjoyable experience.
2. Dual-Zone Automatic Temperature Control
Have you and your passenger ever disagreed about the temperature in a vehicle? It’s a common problem and Jeep has the solution. Dual-zone automatic temperature control allows you and your passenger to select temperatures that are comfortable for each of you, and those temperatures are maintained throughout the ride. Essentially, two microclimates are created and sustained, so you’ll no longer have to dread losing the temperature battle again.
3. Heated Steering Wheel, Front Seats, and Mirrors
In addition to the dual-zone climate control, Jeep also offers a heated steering wheel and front seats for those unexpected chilly mornings. Another great feature is the heated exterior mirrors. Frost and cold weather are no match for Jeep’s superior heating technology.
4. ParkSense Rear Park Assist System and Camera
If you’re like most people, you may have difficulties backing into a parking space or parallel parking. With Jeep’s ParkSense rear park assist system, you’ll be backing up like a pro. The rear bumper is equipped with sonar sensors that alert you to potential obstacles and will sound an alert if one is detected when you’re in reverse.
The rear backup camera will make your life easier by showing you what’s behind your vehicle on the Uconnect touch-screen every time you shift into reverse. Hidden hazards will be a worry of the past with this safety technology.
5. Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path Detection
Jeep is dedicated to keeping drivers safe on the road, so it’s equipped its vehicles with technology to help prevent collisions. Radar sensors located on Jeeps can sense other vehicles and alert you when one is in your blind spot, keeping you from accidentally hitting it. Rear cross path detection is helpful when backing out of a parking spot. If something is behind you, your vehicle will let you know.
Jeep has the reputation of creating rugged vehicles, and it also has ample technology to make any ride incredibly comfortable. Stop by for a test drive today, and feel the difference that driving a Jeep will make. The smooth ride, coupled with the latest tech, will make you wonder why anyone would ever drive anything else.
