CNET - BMW announced new features for its 2014 6-series model today, including an advanced voice recognition system that can take dictation from the driver and send out an email or text.
The tech arms race between BMW and Audi is yielding some amazing cars, such as the Audi S7
we recently reviewed. BMW fights back with its newly announced 2014
6-series, featuring revised cabin electronics that will not only take
dictation and send out emails for the driver, but also debuts a new
digital instrument cluster.
BMW touted the new voice recognition system for the 6-series in a press
release today, noting its simplified voice commands and control over
most cabin tech features. The new system will let drivers activate a
dictation mode, having the
car
transcribe emails and text messages. The car reads out the resulting
text and includes voice controls for making simple edits. The driver can
send the text to anyone in her paired phone's contact list through
email or text message.
