We wanted to see the Uconnect Touch 8.4 by Garmin for ourselves, operating inside the nouveau-classic 2012 Dodge Charger. We headed out to Bustard Chrysler at 575 Davenport Road in Waterloo to give the the device a live demonstration. The partnership between Chrysler and Garmin has made the Uconnect Touch 8.4 and 8.4N models the centerpiece of select Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram vehicles. We wanted to discover why it earned top billing in a recent J.D. Powers and Associates customer satisfaction survey.
As you can see from the start of the video it was snowing when we arrived at the dealer, but thankfully the sun came out by the time we got settled into the car. It made for a warmer hands-on with the Garmin Uconnect system.
Our goal with this and future in-car videos will be to give you a feel for the user-experience from various in-car systems. Take a look at our freshly minted YouTube channel or the blog for updates.
The Uconncect system was super easy to use, very intuitive and user-friendly, we didn’t even need a member of the sales team to walk us through it. Logan and I sat down in the Dodge for about 10 minutes before the start of filming, just playing around with the Uconnect Touch system until we had a feel for it, and away we went. I have a feeling that some of the other in-car systems we get to work with won’t be so easy.
