Earlier this month, the team at your BMW dealership serving Deerfield,IL, Fields BMW Northfield, was thrilled to find out that the 2017 BMW 7 Series had earned the honor of being named to WardsAuto’s inaugural 10 Best User Experiences List of 2016. The 2017 BMW 7 Series is one of three vehicles to be named to both the 10 Best User Experiences List and the 10 Best Interiors List. Keep reading to find out more!
Entrants on the list were examined by the WardsAuto editors for how easily the vehicle integrates with its driver’s smartphone, how user friendly and intuitive the controls are, how the intelligent and helpful the advanced driver assistance technologies are, and how aesthetically pleasing and comfortable the cabin materials are. Drew Winter, WardsAuto Senior Content Director, had this to say about how a vehicle earns a spot on the list:
"We’re paying close attention to touchscreens, navigation systems, and infotainment capability, and we want to know if voice controls work well and if connecting your smartphone is simple. We’re trying to quantify how easy it is overall to interact with a vehicle. Are controls easy to understand, or do you have to consult the owner’s manual? Are the driver-assistance systems, such as adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping, functioning reliably, and do the interior materials enhance the user experience?"
Kate Alini, Product Manager for BMW 7 Series, had this to say about the dynamic 2017 BMW 7 Series:
"When we launched the latest BMW 7 Series our designers and engineers developed a vehicle that featured 25 innovations, most of which are not offered by our competitors, geared towards enhancing comfort and well-being. The BMW 7 Series allows for intelligent communication between the driver and the vehicle."
