Wow, I can't believe how far in the future we are living now that we are making car choices based on the vehicle's voice!



So far that everyone seem to be a russian bot devised you to make you doubt everything

Heh yeah it's a bit weird. But when you're driving a new place in traffic, the voice guidance is a nice safety factor, not having to take your eyes off to look at the center console screen.

We ended up with a Renault Megane e-Tech. In addition to having a much better voice system, being based on Android Automotive, it supports putting the map in the driver console, ie replacing the dials (speed reading gets overlaid of course).

edit: I guess it also says something about how uniform these cars are, feature-wise. Few are radically different, so it quickly boils down to these minor features.
