Top 5 Car Infotainment Systems
The best in-car entertainment features for the modern driver
With advancements in car technology transforming the way we drive in the 21st Century, it’s difficult to remember a time when our cars weren’t helping to make life on the road easier. With many driver convenience functions coming under the car infotainment umbrella, manufacturers have packaged these features into branded systems, many of which you can see demonstrated on the used market today. These are in the form of dashboard-mounted touchscreens, providing both entertainment and information, hence the name!
We’re fortunate enough here at Avalon Motor Company to have a large range of cars fitted with lots of impressive tech; here are some of the top car infotainment systems available…
Mercedes-Benz MBUX
Customisable, with several different style settings that users can choose between, Mercedes-Benz has ensured that each driver feels that they can make their model their own. It recognises touch, voice commands, and in some cases even gestures, ensuring that your attention is kept where it should be; on the road!

Mazda Connect
Have shortcuts to your shortcuts; Mazda Connect allows you to create lists of your most travelled-to destinations. Plus, have easy access to the radio stations you love, and the contacts you’re in touch with most frequently at your fingertips while you’re out and about. You can find it all easily too thanks to a widescreen display and intuitive interface.

Audi MMI
Short for Multi Media Interface, Audi’s MMI system controls communication, audio, and satellite navigation. Two touch screens are better than one in this case, with one in the centre console and another behind the steering wheel. Control is via a satisfying click wheel, laptop-style touchpad, or even your voice; you can’t say Audi doesn’t give you options!

Ford Sync 3
A seasoned in-car infotainment system, Ford Sync was first on the scene in 2007, so it’s a front-runner in many ways. From music streaming to navigation, the interface features very clean, clear graphics, so it operates much like a smartphone, reducing that daunting task of learning something new as well as getting to grips with your new-to-you Ford.

BMW iDrive
Arguably we’ve saved the best until last, with iDrive having established itself as a BMW driver’s best friend. Access music, driving settings, communication and even climate control through its stylish interface, either at the touch of the screen or by simply asking it out loud for what you need.
