Worth the $500 we’d say, but disappointing that it has been relegated to the options list for the latest model. It is a $500 option on the P200, or more for higher-spec variants. We’ve got to slam the brakes on you here, though, for some bad news – the MY22 does not come with the 3D surround camera as standard.
Although you’d be fairly hard pushed to do so as they’re wrapped in chunky 235/60 Michelin Latitude tyres. Using it in the kindy car park and outside a local school, it more than proved its worth.Įqually, having a 360 view brings added reassurance you’re not scuffing those 18-inch, five-split-spoke alloys. This is great news when it comes to common danger zones where being even more aware of where small children might be wandering is no bad thing.

You can choose which corner of the car you want to check the blind spots on and swipe the touchscreen in any direction to give a full bird’s-eye view of its surroundings.

Many families would probably opt for rubber inserts if they have young children, not fancy but very practical.Ī real highlight is the 3D surround camera, plus its new rear traffic and rear collision monitors. Our test car also had premium mats for $460 – although we couldn’t quite figure out what exactly made them so ‘premium’ as they didn’t look any different to ordinary floor mats. It costs $980 and uses a wide-angle camera on the roof to project a crisp image onto the mirror of what’s behind the vehicle when it would otherwise be obscured. The clever Clearsight rearview mirror is a worthy add-on if you’re consistently carrying tall people in the back or want to ferry around lots of luggage.

However, it does have the ability for two phones to connect via Bluetooth at once, as well as a mix of USB and USB-C ports across all rows as standard.
A wireless charging pad will set you back $150, although we’d probably not bother until wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto comes into the mix – what’s the point of wireless charging if you have to plug your phone in to use its functions anyway? Speaking of extras, and there are a lot, this particular base-level example has some options fitted to bump the user experience up a notch.
