Although we will not know details about the new 2022 Jeep Wagoneer until its official launch on March 11, 2021, Autoweek has reported that we can expect one thing: Amazon Fire TV screens built into the Uconnect infotainment system.
Fire TV is Amazon’s answer to streaming services, but it also allows you to play video games, listen to music, and use other apps. And Jeep will be the first manufacturer to implement this software in an automotive environment. Autoweek informs you that it will have the same interface as your Fire TV at home and you will be able to use your account without any problems. Basically, you can start watching a show at home, then get in the car and keep watching from where you left off.
Jeep wants you to know that this will not be available to distract drivers, as the technology is not available while the vehicle is in motion. In this case, only passengers can use Fire TV. But the driver will be able to access it while in the park. It’s always a plus if you end up spending a lot of time in parking lots waiting for appointments right now.
You can also download content. So if you’re on a road trip in the middle of nowhere, you’ll be able to finish your program without having to stream it from the Internet. Given the prevalence of “screens” in response my previous question about keeping kids happy on the road, this will be a benefit for families who see each other on the road regularly.
Everything is fine and elegant, but it raises a big question: what are these screens for? watch I like? It is a which provides some technology to keep parents around the world safe. Another thing is to do it on a screen that protrudes from the rest of the interior like a sore thumb. But we won’t know more until 11.
