Why Are Car Buying Trends Changing?

While engines and performance are top priorities for consumers, now they also want vehicles that make every journey comfortable, safe and technologically advanced. This is why companies are increasingly focusing on in-cabin experience and smart features.

Large dual-screen dashboard

The combination of digital instrument cluster and large infotainment screen in the new cars gives customers a premium experience, making it easy to view important information, as well as enjoy entertainment and connectivity. This feature is available in modern cars like Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos and Tata Nexon.

Panoramic and voice-assisted sunroof

Another feature on the list is the panoramic and voice-assisted sunroof. Earlier these features were available only in some high-end cars, but now it is reaching the mid-size SUV segment as well. The panoramic sunroof makes the cabin feel more spacious and premium. In many cars, it can also be operated by voice command. This feature is available in cars like Mahindra XUV 3XO, Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos and Tata Nexon.

Ventilated front seats

India is quite hot, so ventilated seats become a useful feature. These seats cool the body with the help of air, which makes even long journeys comfortable. This feature is available to customers in Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos and Tata Nexon (high variant).

Level 2 ADAS

Advanced Driver Assistant System (ADAS) is no longer limited to luxury cars. Features like adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, autonomous emergency braking and blind spot monitoring make driving safer. This feature is available in Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos and Mahindra XUV3XO.

360-degree camera and blind-view monitor

Parking in crowded places or cities is not always easy. A 360-degree camera and blind-view monitor give the driver a clear view of the vehicle’s surroundings, making parking and maneuvering in tight spaces easier. It is available in today’s modern cars, such as Hyundai Creta (360° camera + blind view monitor), Kia Seltos (360° camera + blind view monitor), and Tata Nexon (360° camera).

While engines, mileage and performance are important, consumers now value safety, convenience and smart technology equally. That’s why cabin features are playing a more important role than ever before when buying a new car.
