Car Phones
Another feature that was big in the 1980s was car phones, and you started to see them pop up everywhere long before they were extinct. Originally reserved for the rich and famous, car phones became the norm for most high-end cars in the 1980s. The modern infotainment systems that we have today wouldn’t be around if it hadn’t been for car phones (via Quora).
Car phones offered a range of benefits, including enhanced safety and improved communication options. Which is why they were incorporated into the modern designs of cars before they were extinct. Most drivers nowadays enjoy having the luxury to make calls directly from their vehicle while they are on the road.
