Chevrolet Teen Driver Technology Features

Teen Driver Technology is currently only available with Chevrolet models. You can either find it standard or available across the whole lineup. So what is Teen Driver Technology and what can you gain from it? Here are some of the features this technology can offer:

• Speed Warning: Parents can set an audible and visual warning to go off when the vehicle exceeds a pre-set speed limit.
• Speed Limiter: Utilize the speed limiter to restrict the Chevy vehicle to a maximum speed of 85 mph.
• Audio Limit: We all remember how fun it was to cruise around with a friend listening to your favorite tunes, but if you’d like to ensure your teen doesn’t jam out too loudly, you can set a limit on audio volume.
• Seat Belt Audio Mute: This convenient feature will mute the audio inside the vehicle until both the driver and front passenger have buckled themselves in.

These four features come standard on all Teen Driver systems, but there are a few other features that you can upgrade to if you’d like. These include:

• Industry-First Buckle to Drive: Designed to remind new teen drivers to buckle up before heading out on Saugerties roads, this industry-first feature prevents unbuckled drivers from shifting out of Park for 20 seconds. It also provides audible and visual alerts reminding the driver to buckle up.
• Industry-First In-Vehicle Report Card: This innovative feature allows you to view an in-vehicle report card detailing how your teen was driving when you weren’t in the vehicle.
