Interior Design revolution: A look inside the latest cars

While prospective owners usually fall in love with a car’s exterior design, it’s the inside of the car that you and your passengers are likely to love or loathe as time goes on.

Over the years, interior design has arguably progressed even more radically than how cars look on the outside. Yes, there’s still a steering wheel (for now at least), information gauges and controls for things like the air conditioning, but the quality of materials and technology has been revolutionised – even in just the past five years.

Just take the latest Peugeot 208 supermini, as an example. A decade ago, its predecessor, the 207 was a perfectly comfortable car, but its dashboard was made out of quite scratchy plastic and the infotainment system consisted of a CD player and radio with an LCD display. The latest model’s fascia is swathed in soft-touch materials, classy piano-black plastic and a touchscreen infotainment display that you can pinch-and-swipe like an iPad and connect with your favourite smartphone apps.
