Nowadays, you’ll find a terrific range of advanced tech features in a modern Volkswagen car. And these technologies are improving all the time; some of them even upgrade automatically in your car. Let’s take a look at five excellent VW features designed to supercharge your driving experience. And if you’d like to see them in action, visit your nearest Volkswagen dealership for an in-person demonstration. 

5 Impressive Tech Features You’ll Find on Today’s VW Vehicles

4Motion Active Control

With the 4Motion Active Control feature, you have a driving experience that can adapt itself to the road conditions at each moment. There are four driving modes that you can switch between simply by turning a dial. 
These modes include snow, normal road, off-road, and an individually customized setting. Each mode adjusts a variety of elements such as four-wheel drive, engine performance, gearbox configuration, steering torque, suspension tension, climate control, and more to suit your moment-by-moment driving needs and preferences. 

Bluetooth Phone Pairing

You can now seamlessly pair your smartphone or tablet to your car, allowing greater control and enjoyment of most in-car technologies and infotainment features. Once paired, you can enjoy music, radio, and podcasts more easily while on the road. You can also control most of your phone’s apps through your car’s larger touchscreen. 
Pairing also allows you to make calls without taking your hands from the wheel or eyes from the road. And your passengers can enjoy movies, games, social media, and other entertainment which help make long drives more enjoyable; it’s easy to pair more than one device and then toggle between them. 

Electronic Parking Brake System

When the Auto Hold electronic parking brake system is activated, an ABS hydraulic unit applies and maintains the parking pressure you last applied. This feature safely prevents your car from rolling if you ever park on a slight hill. Sensors in your car can immediately detect any rolling and apply enough braking force to keep your car stationary. 

Driver Alert System

On longer drives, fatigue is a danger that all drivers face. With the Driver Alert System, your car learns your ordinary driving habits and can detect signs of slightly erratic driving that might indicate tiredness. It then gently alerts you and encourages you to stop for a break. 


Automatic Software Upgrades

The latest VW electric vehicles have a sophisticated operating system that connects directly to the internet and automatically upgrades itself each time there’s an update. This cutting-edge system allows VW electric cars to continuously advance their electric powertrain and architecture until they one day become fully automatic.
