PEOPLE DRIVING the Ford C-Max can use voice commands as they are going down the road.
Drivers can control the radio, climate, smartphones, CD and MP3 players with simple voice commands whilst on the move. We were able to control key functions without risking life and limb.
Other key features include a Blind Spot alert system, USB connection, Bluetooth as well as an Electronic Stability Programme. µ

THATS CAUSE MY CAR HAS AUTO-MATIC SHIFTING MECHANISM SO I CAN PLAY MY $40 PSP WITH ONE HAND WHILST I DRIVE INTO WORK IN THE MORNING.
PLUS, I USE NORMAL STEERING RATHER THAN THAT JAPANESE SPEC RIGHT-HAND STEERING THAT THE KIDS ARE ALL OVER TODAY. THATS A GIMMICK THAT WILL SOON PASS, ONE WOULDA THOUGHT INQUIRER COULD RECOGNIZE THAT?
Is this really news?
My daughter's 5 year old Honda Civic has this and no doubt expensive Mercs before that. Countless other cars today do too.
