"The onboard telematics system will now interface with the Apple Watch and Android Wear, in addition to the usual array of iOS, Android,
and Windows Phone devices. In short, drivers will be able to check how

and unlock their car, straight from the wrist. Soon they'll be able to
send navigation directions to the car from their smartwatch, as well."

older children and also increased their comfort. The clear benefit of
the integrated design also means that the cushion is always available
and the potential for misuse is minimized. Few car makers offer
integrated booster cushions for children to this day." READ MORE
