5 Essential Features Every Car Should Have in 2022

The day is still not around the corner when the driving world will witness high-flying clouds in people's rearview mirrors. However, thank god that the automotive technologies have come a long way now. With that, we anticipate that a lot more milestones will get crossed after some years. Various car functions and features have developed and have gone over some years. But only the innovative ones get adopted by the manufacturers.
In the 21st century auto industry, the most prioritized feature is safety. And it will continue to be the top concern for all car manufacturers. That's because car companies race and outfit the vehicles with innovative technologies that reduce collision chances and protect passengers in case of emergencies like accidents.
Given below are the top five features that everyone needs to understand. You can take these as the game changers in the auto industry. Let's read through the narration and understand them accordingly.
Feature 1: Auto-Dimming IRVM Tech
Even today, that's something missing on a majority of cars these days. The cars that cost above Rs.15 Lakhs tend to miss out on the Auto-Dimming IRVM. As a matter of fact, it's common for automakers to provide the Auto-Dimming IRVM only on first-class models of vehicles. That seems massively unfair. So, this particular feature is essential for anyone who aims at driving on highways during the nighttime. The fact is that it's something like a safety feature and not a comfort feature. Automakers must incorporate this feature even in the affordable range of cars.

Feature 2: Tilt &Telescopic Steering Adjustable Function
It's extremely good to have this feature in each and every car, particularly when more than a single person is driving. Needless to say, it offers drivers the whole freedom to adjust dynamics in accordance with the reach and height. It gives an ergonomically suitable posture for seating.

Feature 3: Lumbar Support
Lumbar support is the essential feature that your car needs to have when traveling for a long distance. India is regarded for the bad and bumpy roads and how they take a toll on the driver's and passengers' backs. A seat that features lumbar support will be extremely useful. It offers an additional layer of comfort. In addition, it also helps alleviate your lower back pain.

Feature 4: Cars That talk to One Another
Does that sound crazy? Oh, yes, it does! But no matter how crazy that may sound, it will certainly become a reality. In the future, vehicles will make the right use of advanced Wi-Fi technologies, transmitting the location and any other quintessential information (direction, speed, etc.) to prevent car collisions. Nonetheless, you can expect that the price will remain hefty for multiple years before 2022.
Feature 5: Adaptive Cruising Technology

Imagine travelling at highway speeds sans continually adjusting vehicle speed to match a car right in front. That's what adaptive cruise control can provide. It's now optional (and even pricey) on the high-end versions of cars. But reports suggest that this feature will most certainly become standard in the near future. The technology is also expected to emerge to the point where it can operate at extremely low speeds, such as in stop-&-go traffic.
With the innovation in technologies, the world shall expect to witness the revolutionary specifications incorporated in a modern car. The technologically advanced world of automobiles is in constant demand for implementing newer innovations to simplify customers' experience when travelling. That's the most prominent reason why you expect the newer cars to introduce the aforementioned features in the near future. Do you think the new automobiles should come with some other innovative features? If yes, you can write about them in the comment section below.
