THE NEW DACIA SANDERO: THE SCREEN COMES OUT OF YOUR POCKET

Taking our smartphone out of our pocket and making it our companion on the road without the hassle of a loose mount on an air conditioning grille? If only it were that easy! At Dacia, they understood this problem. The brand's engineers and designers have combined their talents to meet the challenge and come up with a solution that is clever, economical and in tune with the times.

CLEVER SYSTEM, CLEVER FUNCTIONS

But all this is not enough to make Media Control a 100% smart multimedia system. Thanks to the customizable application, the system also adapts to the needs of each user and even connects to the vehicle's on-board computer.

It is thus possible to create shortcuts to favourite widgets, favourite applications and even to frequent contacts. For navigation, there is a wide choice of map and guidance providers. When it comes to multimedia, it's à la carte: radio, playlists from the phone, subscriptions to music platforms, USB sticks or MP3 players. For the phone, in addition to calls, all the essential functions are there: hands-free mode to find a contact in the phonebook, consult the history or access the events planned in the calendar. On Android, and soon on iOS, the SMS function even reads messages aloud. On the vehicle side, the Driving ECO function gives access to real-time fuel consumption and personalized driving tips at the end of each journey.

Once arrived at destination, the dizzy ones will appreciate the forgotten phone alert and the 'Go To My Car' function, which makes it easy to find their parking spot.

Nicolas Legros who sums it up best "Media Control brings the best of smartphone technology to the driving experience."

IT COULDN'T BE SIMPLER

The simplicity of the system lies in its ergonomics. Thanks to the optimal positioning of the docking station for the smartphone, everything is easily accessible with a few clicks. The application is intuitive, with a user interface that allows efficient and fluid navigation through the menus.

The replication of the actions performed on the smartphone in the central screen of the dashboard makes it even easier to get to grips with the system. Finally, the steering wheel controls make it easy to control the application to change tracks, radio stations, vary the volume or even answer or hang up calls. And for added convenience and safety, the voice command of the smartphone is there.

In short, the Media Control system is well thought out! An essential feature. A customizable interface. Intuitive to use. And all with the best value for money on the market. "The embodiment of the brand's DNA applied to multimedia", to quote Nicolas Legros, ticking all the boxes of the Dacia spirit. It's simple, practical, and clever. It's Dacia.
