The Pininfarina BLUECAR uses the most advanced technologies to foster communication between the car and its driver. The upper screen, which is highly legible and clear, shows all the key indicators concerning the car’s operation: speed, remaining range, battery charge gauge. The central touchscreen is the virtual core of the onboard computer; it provides access to all the functions linked to cabin comfort and driving enjoyment: temperature regulation, in-car audio system, GPS, breakdown assistance, hands-free telephony, driving mode (economy, sport or icy roads). All these functions are controlled intuitively via 3D images. Finally, a remote control built into a smartphone can be used to remotely check the battery charge level and pre-heat the car’s electric drive system so that it is ready to drive off immediately even if it has been left at the curb for a long time.
