An update on your car has usually meant trading in the old and buying a new one. But with modern technology, an update might be just a few mouse clicks away.

Available on some and soon to be available on others two examples: High Beam Assistant which prevents glaring from your headlights for other drivers.
Drive Recorder saves video of your trip or automatically captures the previous 20 leading up to an accident.
With this trend I hope that car companies don’t play around with family controls for the sake of looking different.
