Steering wheel buttons are positioned on both the left and right sides of the wheel for convenient access. They are placed ergonomically in such a way that the driver doesn’t have to remove their hand from the wheel. Instead, the buttons are easily reachable with the thumbs. Typical functions controlled by these buttons include managing the sound system, answering phone calls, adjusting radio settings, and navigating through the indicator panel menu.
