A triumph of touchscreens
Given that we aren’t always impressed by in-car touchscreens, this system is one of the best we’ve used. It’s big for a start. Having projected it into the cabin, off the dash, it’s easier to reach, just a short sweep of your left hand as it rests on the wheel. However, the three physical buttons (for volume, home menu and shuttle through the nav-media-radio menus) are set up for left-hand-drive markets. It’s a real shame for us that Peugeot didn’t flip them over.
The touchscreen reacts quickly and because it’s big, you’re not trying to hit a pin-prick of a tiny button to change stuff, so we made fewer input errors than on other systems we’ve used. And the shortcuts for the phone and the radio presets on the wheel are logical too.
It’s only graphics that things fall down on. A blue and grey colour theme (we’re not sure why they didn’t key each menu to a different tone) and the depth of quality – things like the richness of the blacks - isn’t really up to snuff. All in all, it’s a shame because it doesn’t match the simple, clear quality of the analogue dials and slightly spoils the experience of a really good system
