Bluetooth Gets Nod In Car Review

Posted Feb 8th 2004 10:07AM by Michael Sciannamea

As vehicles get more sophisticated and employ more technology to operate, the art of describing them (and selling them) will involve more technological awareness. Case in point—a review of the new 2004 Toyota Prius, complete with a nod to Bluetooth technology.

Aside from the fuel-economy and great handling, Emmons loves the techy features that make his driving more fun. Because he has a cell phone with Bluetooth wireless technology, he can punch a button on the steering wheel and receive phone calls. When a call comes in, the stereo mutes so the driver doesn't have to turn down the volume. Calls can be dialed by using the keypad on the car's navigation screen.
