Not only does the rear monitor have touch control but the layout of the devices makes the camera control smooth and easy.

High-tech options include adaptive cruise control, rear parking assist with cross-path detection and a lane departure system that not only alerts you if the vehicle drifts out of the lane, but gently guides you back between the lane markers.

And if one buys the Ultra Luxury Package, they will actually be pampered, thanks to such amenities as rear vanity mirrors, climate control, heated and cooled seats, reading lights and an interior air filter.
Fog lamps, halogen headlights with projector technology, rear park assist, AWD, cruise control, XM radio, traction control, daytime running lamps and a navigation system all come standard.
The entire BRABUS multimedia system is controlled from the passenger seat or the rear compartment by two iPads that also control the car's standard COMAND system with all functions such as radio, navigation system and telephone.
I'll list just a few: rear cleanse, front cleanse, soft rear cleanse, oscillating cleanse, water pressure control, nozzle position adjustment, "SoftClose" seat and air purifier.
That means the rear wheels will slip a tad (before traction-control takes hold and stops a skid or a peel-out), but that's one of the things we've always loved about BMWs--this carmaker trusts the driver to know what to do when that happens and you don't find electronic nannies overly interfering with the machine you spent your hard-earned dough for.
It comes well equipped with features like push-button start, a rear-view camera and the Sync and MyFord Touch multimedia control systems.
The Driver Assist package, debuting now, goes a step further by intervening to avoid a crash through its Adaptive Cruise Control, Automatic Collision Preparation, and Front and Rear Automatic Braking systems.

Ford's outfitted the Fusion Energi with a dizzying array of driver-assist tech, including a lane-keeping system, adaptive cruise control, driver alert system, active park assist, rear camera, blind-spot indicator system with cross-traffic alert and pull-drift compensation (phew).

Two iPads in the rear compartment not only play movies, music and Internet content, they also control all functions of the S-Class COMAND system.
It's also packing motion control sensors, haptic feedback, dual speakers, shoulder buttons, left and right rear triggers, a microphone, an infrared sensor, near-field communication support, a front-facing camera and a rechargeable battery (it even has its own power adapter).
The model I drove came loaded with heated and cooled front and rear leather seats, Bluetooth, Xenon headlamps, illuminated door plates, XM radio, stability control, lane departure warning, 19-inch alloy wheels, a sunroof, and park assistance with rearview camera.
Both models will also apparently come packed with features, include driver and passenger side airbags, interior and exterior LED lighting, a "solar assisted" climate control system, and an "advanced drive computer" that includes GPS, a rear-view camera, and a complete vehicle diagnostic system.
