What's coming to Carnamic in 2024?

Each year, new vehicles are released with the latest technology. Whether it’s safety or connectivity, new cars can do as much as your smartphone - or more, in some cases. But do you really need all those high-tech features? more Driver Assist Features You might think you don’t need driver assist features, but groups like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS)  and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) think that you do. In fact, driver assist features like automatic high beams can make the difference between an IIHS Top Safety Pick and a Top Safety Pick+. Other features like Lane Keep Assist, Automatic Braking, and Rear Cross Traffic Warning factor heavily into safety ratings. Backup and Surround-View Cameras Technology should make driving easier and safer, and cameras and radar do just that. It’s why they’re now required on all new vehicles, but not all cameras are built the same. Whether it’s backing out of a crowded parking lot or switching lanes, having an extra set of eyes will help you avoid a collision. If available, check out all the available camera angles to see how simple they are to use and what type of view you get. Touchscreens It’s becoming difficult to find a vehicle without a touchscreen. While some are easy to use and intuitive, others may hide basic controls behind several taps, making it difficult to do something as simple as turn on your heated seat. Before you buy, check out the touchscreen during your test drive. If you aren’t one for using a touchscreen, look for a vehicle that also has physical knobs and controls to keep things simple. Apps Have you ever wished you could warm or cool your vehicle without going outside? Sure, there’s remote start, but what if you need to change the temperature? With apps like Mitsubishi Connect, you can set climate controls right from your smartphone. You can also lock or unlock the doors, flash the lights, and more, giving you total control remotely. Vehicle app services can be incredibly convenient, and drivers often come to rely on them more than they initially thought they would. The best way to find out which types of high-tech features you prefer is to test them out for yourself, and you can test drive all the newest models at your local Carnamic!

So, you've bought a new car! Of course, you want to do what you can to keep it looking and operating its best for as long as possible. You've probably heard about all the different vehicle maintenance plans on the market, but with so many to choose from, you might wonder if it's really worth it. Does your new vehicle need a maintenance plan? Learn more about all the benefits of a pre-paid maintenance plan and how it can be worthy investment for your new vehicle. more Benefits of Maintenance Plans Some might view a maintenance plan as one more cost tacked on to cost of their new vehicle. However, a pre-paid maintenance plan is a sure way to save you more money down the line. Dealerships specialize in your vehicle and know how it works inside and out. They'll use genuine parts and high-quality fluids to perform service. Your maintenance plan is already paid for, so service or parts prices don't affect the cost of your maintenance for the duration of the plan. Technicians at Carnamic dealerships do more thorough inspections because they know what to look for in your specific vehicle. They're factory-trained to give you the best, most complete service. What Do Vehicle Maintenance Plans Cover? Not all maintenance plans are right for everyone, and that's why there are usually a few to choose from. For example, a general maintenance plan will cover oil changes, tire rotations, and inspections that need to be done regularly. Some may extend past what's covered by warranty, like a Select Care Plan. This plan covers parts that need to be replaced frequently, like windshield wipers or headlights. Another option can come in especially handy if you drive on rough roads frequently: Road Hazard and Wheel Protection. If you frequent roads with potholes or debris, having extra maintenance coverage for your vehicle can more than pay for itself in a few visits.
