blog 30Toyota is one of the leading car designers in the world. The company consistently improves on earlier designs by adding updated technology to enhance performance. New features make Toyota an industry leader in functionality, performance, and comfort.

USB Ports

Most smartphones and tablets rely on USB-powered chargers to recharge. Normally you’d have to buy a separate specialty plug in order to charge your phone using what was once the cigarette lighters in your car. However, new Toyota models have built-in USB ports where you can plug in any device that uses a USB cord to charge without buying a separate specialty charger.

Voice Recognition

In order to stay focused when driving in a world full of technology, it’s critical to be able to tell your car what you want it to do. If you want to text someone, you should never do so while driving. That is unless you can do it hands-free using voice recognition. You can tell your car to call your friends using your connected smartphone or to find the nearest gas station if you need to refuel.

Bluetooth-Enabled Phone Book

Since the invention of smartphones, address books, and palm pilots, we haven’t had the need to remember phone numbers in a long time. So when it’s time to dial your favorite aunt to tell her you’re 10 minutes away from her house using your car’s console, it would be inconvenient to have to pull out your phone first to figure out the number to dial. The Bluetooth-enabled phone books make it easy to look up the numbers without needing your phone first.

Entune™ Premium Audio System

The Entune™ Premium Audio System has quickly become a customer favorite. Much like your favorite tablet or smartphone, this system has downloadable apps so you can customize your experience with your car’s console. If you love listening to radio stations from around the country or already subscribe to an app-based audiobook service, you can enjoy access from your car without draining your smartphone battery.

Built-In Navigation

The 2017 Toyota models come with built-in navigation so you always know where you’re going, even if you don’t own a separate GPS system or smartphone. The larger screen and built-in voice recognition make it easy to see the directions clearly without fumbling with your phone. Many customers prefer the built-in navigation system to aftermarket versions.

Smart Key System

Toyota’s Smart Key System allows you to open car doors with the touch of a handle, instead of having to dig through your purse to find your key. As long as you’re carrying your key in your pocket or purse, you’ll be able to open your car doors or trunk without the key. The Smart Key System also allows you to start the car without using the physical key.
