Technology Questions

Is the 2014 as good as some of the high tech cars now available? Can it for example:

Display inbound text messages from a paired phone?

After an initial download of the phones contacts does it sync updates automatically or do you have to re-download. My current car downloads my 300 contacts every-time it pairs. Takes only about 30 seconds which is fine with me.

What happens to a call in progress when you shut off the ignition? And when you open the door?

Does the surround view show the ground in front of the car?

If you are slowly backing into a wall, parktronics will start alerting wildly. But will it brake and stop before impact?

If you push the Siri button on your iPhone, will the conversation go through the car telematics or the iPhone?

Can you speak a destination address as "1 2 3 Main Street, Grandview, Illinois"?

Can you you use speech to control climate or radio?

Can you say "Call Mary Smith on Cell"?
