"The multi-function steering wheel includes settings such as audio control and air conditioning adjustment. Introduction to the multi-function steering wheel: A multi-function steering wheel refers to the placement of function buttons on both sides or below the steering wheel, allowing the driver to operate it more conveniently. Configuration of the multi-function steering wheel: Currently, common multi-function steering wheels cover functions such as multimedia system control, Bluetooth phone, cruise control, and voice control. Drivers can directly operate many electronic devices in the car from the steering wheel without having to search for various buttons on the center console, enabling them to focus more on the road ahead and significantly improving driving safety. Originally, this feature belonged to mid-range cars, but with technological advancements, it has gradually been introduced to family cars. Many compact cars launched in 2013 are equipped with this function. Although most are limited to audio control, it provides considerable convenience and enjoyment for family car users."
The steering wheel functions in my Excelle are quite practical. The buttons on the left control the audio system, allowing me to adjust volume and skip tracks without distracting myself by touching the screen. On the right are the cruise control buttons, which make setting speed on highways effortless, and adjusting following distance is simple too. Just a tap on the voice command button with my thumb activates the system, enabling voice-controlled navigation or music selection. In the center, there are call answer and menu buttons, so checking fuel consumption or remaining range can be done directly from the wheel. The buttons have good tactile feedback, making operations easy with just finger movements while driving – especially convenient for skipping tracks in traffic jams. The overall layout is well-designed, enhancing driving focus and safety.
