The shape of things to come, the Z9 Cabriolet hints at the future of luxury sedan design, specifically the next 7 Series. Termed iDrive, the ergonomic approach allows the driver to command such functions using a color monitor and rotary-push knob. Rear access is eased with a third door. The hands-free Visteon Voice system enables a clean dash design while providing controls for 118 functions, recognized in six languages.
Information is relayed to driver in a male or female voice and a heads-up display.
Blurring the lines between sport sedan, SUV, and wagon, the Vizon features an electronically operated liftgate that exposes a flexible interior. Outside, an integrated roof rack accommodates sports gear while a large two-way moonroof lets fresh air pour through. All rights reserved.
