Built in satellite navigation took the second spot (40%), while 34% of those surveyed said they want automatic headlights on their car.
A further 25% said cruise control was an important technology feature, while assisted parking (21%) rounded off the top five.
Despite technology topping drivers’ wish lists when choosing a car, one in five (19%) of those surveyed admitted they actually wouldn’t know how to use these advanced features.
James Buttrick, Senior Leasing Consultant at Vantage-leasing.com, commented: “It’s quite interesting to see how many drivers in the UK are aspiring to have all the latest technology on their car. However, it is important that as a nation we understand how to use all these advanced features. Firstly, so that these features don’t remain unused and also from a safety point of view.
“Nevertheless, motorists should make full use of all these features to assist their driving. When it comes to choosing a car, drivers need to select a car that’s right for them and ensure they understand all the safety components that come with having advanced technology on the car.”
The data also revealed that men aged 34-50 are most likely to want the latest technology features on their car (31%).
Meanwhile, Birmingham is the city with the highest expectations in the UK, where 71% of residents aspire to have the most advanced technology on their car, followed by those living in Nottingham (66%).
