All You Need to Know about Luxury Cars

Luxury cars are more than a mere status symbol, it is a sign of superior quality, better performance, comfort, and technologically innovation. It is for such features that these vehicles are so popular in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. And with women now joining in, the demand is likely to increase, going forward. However, as is the case with all types of luxury, the more features and technological advancements you choose, the higher will be the cost. Therefore, take a look at some things you should decide on to find just the right vehicle.

Size of the Vehicle

So, to be called luxury cars, do the vehicles need to be big? Not really. The term can be applied to any vehicle, whether a sedan, coupe, hatchback, station wagon, convertible, crossover or SUV. The convergence of the markets and different perceptions of people about what they term as luxury has led to the use of this term for various types of cars and vehicles. It essentially means different things to different people. However, the most common factors that classify a vehicle as luxury are its internal and external features and specs, as well as the performance and driving experience the automobile offers.

Also, once a brand is recognized as a luxury brand, any car launched under its banner is considered luxury because of the quality assurance that the brand represents. Again, non-luxury brands may come up with vehicles that look and feel like a luxury when one choose the top-of-the-line trim and specs. So, what we need to realize is that one company or brand can offer a variety of vehicles, including luxury, and we should choose accordingly.

Features of Luxury Cars

As mentioned above luxury refers to quality, comfort, good looks, attractive design and latest technology. Here are some features that can be used to categorize a vehicle as a luxury:

·         Active suspension, which uses sensors to determine the extent of bumps on the road and accordingly adjust the wheel’s travel.

·         Keyless or remote start system that allows one to open the door and start the engine without inserting a key in the car or even stepping into it. This gives the car time to warm up.

·         Auto lane keeping or lane deviation sensor, which allows the driver to drive in a disciplined manner.

·         Automatic climate control

·         Multifunction steering wheel

·         Premium upholstery and other interiors

·         Adaptive cruise control, to judge the distance in the front and adjust the car’s speed accordingly.

·         Powerful music system

Apart from these, manufacturers have been introducing newer features, such as massager seats, rear sunshades, and panoramic moon roof, to attract customers willing to pay more for such luxuries. Such a massive variety of luxury cars are available in the market that you can always find one according to your requirements and budget.
