As more parts of a vehicle&#8217;s interior get digitized with car interfaces for control, so does the demand to make these UIs user-friendly and intuitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Touch screens are replacing knobs and dials in most cars, including gas and electric vehicles. Many cars also have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/blog\/voice-user-interface\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">voice user interfaces (VUI)<\/a> which require careful UX design to ensure they&#8217;re safe and user-friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ux-ui-design-role-in-the-driving-experience\">UX UI Design Role in the Driving Experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As cars evolve, so do user needs regarding the driving experience. Drivers no longer want to get from A to B; they want features that enhance the journey to make it more enjoyable\u2013especially in cities where people spend hours commuting morning and evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some features that enhance the driving experience include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Driver assistance systems<\/li><li>Self-driving\/autopilot systems<\/li><li>Navigation<\/li><li>Technical diagnostics<\/li><li>In-vehicle infotainment systems (audio &amp; video)<\/li><li>Climate and comfort control systems<\/li><li>Device connectivity (integrating phones, tablets, watches, laptops, etc.)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As people move away from car ownership to micro rentals (hourly or A-to-B car hire), we&#8217;ll likely see dedicated apps installed on the car&#8217;s touchscreen so users can start and end rides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, cars will become another <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Internet_of_things\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Internet of things (IoT)<\/a> gadget that integrates with a network of devices rather than a stand-alone mode of transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-car-ux-design-challenges-for-designers\">6 Car UX Design Challenges for Designers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-car-touchscreen-design\">1. Car Touchscreen Design<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nngroup.com\/articles\/tesla-big-touchscreen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Dashboard touchscreens<\/a> are likely the first UI that comes to mind when you think about automotive UX. The most famous is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tesla.com\/models\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Tesla&#8217;s large center console touchscreens<\/a> that control every aspect of the vehicle&#8217;s features, infotainment, and diagnostics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/3CYOogrZPUV-SJC3ccdKcIGaewSXnZYeUBE5svtD-w_lH36uFRJqbEyTT0xaMKJ_c3kKoT2N_V25K7lyj03MCHzy6K8PkwMDUoPqyqJ0wn7EVDznAMGnFb7J7V-jolvgkgCEiXZMMAsZghel9CcT3KaO6oIPZpnYkb-sj1G8UK0hGfLzZvzCqMMxOQ\" alt=\"Tesla car UI design\" width=\"650\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Automakers also mount these in the steering wheel dash for drivers and rear headrests for passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/_yZbhug2EypkCtoQdrXq5SFocAheJ6Mg3D0FV3J7W8o77biycdlLFOAEvCDSM8CXQi_17Iitn20YrO2xZOT9QThkaUBvlYOxfZcFnOPEAVQ30RNlEtGNJ2c6gVLnD4O1oKUdAReBpyX_55f8NQrUqK0IhQR-aHVwnEwv0el_sGeOsBqcFt23ha3F7w\" alt=\"Tesla car UI design\" width=\"650\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first challenge UX designers must overcome is the design mindset. Traditional UX design looks for ways to keep users engaged, whereas automotive UX must achieve the opposite and keep drivers focused on the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Car user interfaces must be clean and minimal with large text, toggles, and buttons so users can use them with no more than a glance. UX designers must work with interior automotive design teams to match the user experience to the driver&#8217;s reach, line of sight, left vs. right-hand drive, etc.\u2013all elements that could impact driver safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-infotainment-systems\">2. Infotainment Systems<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Behind these touchscreens are infotainment systems, providing details about the vehicle and journey as well as entertainment, including music, radio (analog and digital), cameras, device connectivity, audiobooks, video streaming, weather, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In cars with multiple touchscreens, front and back, UX designers must think about the user experience for each differently. It&#8217;s essential to display vehicle and journey information for drivers, but backseat passengers have different priorities, like being entertained during their trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These differences mean design teams must decide which infotainment features are available to drivers and passengers, what the priorities are, and the impacts on navigation and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/blog\/organizing-information\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">information architecture<\/a>. Designers also have to consider safety\u2013should drivers or any front screens have access to video streaming that could distract from the road?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-balancing-personalized-user-experience-with-shared-mobility\">3. Balancing Personalized User Experience With Shared Mobility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every driver has a preference for seat position, mirror angles, and stereo setup. Car interfaces add another dimension of personalization, which can get complicated with shared mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting a seat in the correct position is relatively simple, but what about the screen&#8217;s primary view preference, device connectivity, climate control, navigation, and infotainment?\u2013all of which take time to set up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/team-collaboration-talk-communication-ideas-messsages.png\" alt=\"team collaboration talk communication ideas messsages\" class=\"wp-image-35470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/team-collaboration-talk-communication-ideas-messsages.png 750w, https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/team-collaboration-talk-communication-ideas-messsages-700x280.png 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>UX designers must look at ways to personalize the driving experience while building features to accommodate multiple users. Creating user profiles is a good solution, but what about car-sharing services and rentals? Downloading these settings from a smartphone or smartwatch might be a better option, where the car sets everything up as soon as it connects to the driver&#8217;s device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-safety-features\">4. Safety Features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Safety is the foundation for every automotive UX design decision. Instead of capturing the user&#8217;s attention, the goal is to design UIs and present data a driver can consume with a glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UX designers must collaborate with automotive design teams to understand safety systems and how to present these to the driver, for example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Lane assist\u2013changing lanes and alerting drivers when they&#8217;re straying<\/li><li>Environmental sensors\u2013telling drivers when they&#8217;re too close to other cars and objects<\/li><li>Speed warnings<\/li><li>Seatbelt notifications<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Designers must also consider which user interactions promote safety and in which situations. For example, voice commands might be the best option while driving, or the driver can use a swipe gesture to change displays without taking their eyes off the road.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-driving-assistance\">5. Driving Assistance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uxdesign.cc\/why-ux-is-booming-in-the-automotive-industry-part-2-85908dc5b02d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS)<\/a> are standard in most high-end vehicles nowadays, but simplified versions are slowly making their way into midrange and budget cars. These systems can perform simple tasks, like alerting you when you drift out of your lane to full autopilot\u2013as we see with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tesla.com\/models\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Tesla range<\/a>\u2013complete with multiple sensors and cameras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uxdesign.cc\/why-ux-is-booming-in-the-automotive-industry-part-2-85908dc5b02d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Paul Schouten, a UX Designer at TomTom, points out<\/a>, <em>&#8220;All these sensors create a lot of contextual data! What can we possibly do with all this data?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Telsa can drive itself with all this data, but what if the driver has control and the vehicle&#8217;s systems detect a potential accident? While engineers focus on developing AI systems that avert accidents, UX designers must decide how they interact with the driver safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do this successfully, designers must have a deep understanding of the <a href=\"https:\/\/inductiveautomation.com\/resources\/article\/what-is-hmi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Human-Machine Interface (HMI)<\/a> and how interaction design impacts the driving experience and safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-designing-from-scratch\">6. Designing From Scratch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest automotive UX challenges is that designers must design from scratch for every model. Screens, buttons, features, dials, locations, and even operating systems often change with each release, so designers must rethink their designs from the ground up each year\u2013significantly more challenging than going from iPhone 12 to 13!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Designers must also consider more screen sizes and viewports. Most vehicles use custom-fitted screens but also offer mobile apps that control the car&#8217;s system and features. They must prioritize features, layouts, and information architecture differently for in-vehicle and external applications\u2013each with the potential to change annually!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/design-prototyping-collaboration-interaction.png\" alt=\"design prototyping collaboration interaction\" class=\"wp-image-35209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/design-prototyping-collaboration-interaction.png 750w, https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/design-prototyping-collaboration-interaction-700x280.png 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Cars also stay on the road much longer than people keep mobile devices. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/IPhone_5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Apple released the iPhone 5 in 2012<\/a>, but you&#8217;ll be hard-pressed to find someone still using one in 2022. Conversely, many people drive cars 10, 20, or even 50+ years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this isn&#8217;t an issue for cars built 50 years ago, newer models with touchscreens and other technology must be maintained and updated. UX designers must constantly innovate for new models while future-proofing designs to maintain older systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-faster-prototyping-with-uxpin-merge\">Faster Prototyping With UXPin Merge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping up with the fast-paced automotive industry means designers must prototype, test, and iterate faster and with a higher degree of accuracy. With limited time, they also need better cross-functional collaboration and fewer errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UXPin Merge allows you to sync a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/create-design-system-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">design system<\/a> hosted in a repository with UXPin&#8217;s design editor, so the entire product development team uses the same components. Any changes to the repository automatically sync to UXPin, notifying designers of the update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With UXPin&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/merge\/version-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Version Control<\/a>, designers can switch to an older version of the design system, perfect for maintaining older products\u2013like the infotainment system for a 2019 car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-scale-faster-prototyping-with-patterns\">Scale Faster Prototyping With Patterns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the challenges with maintaining a design system is promoting new patterns and waiting for engineers to code them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/merge\/patterns\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UXPin Patterns<\/a>, design teams can omit the development phase and begin prototyping with new patterns immediately.
