I'm living in Greece at the moment and have hired a Hyundai Bayon, an unremarkable little car to look at.
That said, the tech in it is impressive, and not surprisingly i suppose, more up to date than my E71. I am told its a standard car which makes some of the features impressive. Sat-nav is pretty common these days, but there a steering wheel controlled menu thats better than the E71s idrive. It has Android Auto, voice dialling, various menus for MPG etc, auto headlights with high beam assist as BMW call it and a wealth of other features that confirm how old my cars tech is now.. I'd add a picture but its rather wet outside currently.
Would i swap it for my E71? Never, but i'm impressed by the inclusive built in features.

The bit that frustrates me is that so much of this tech in cars from the far East is included whereas us Europeans have to pay an absolute fortune for it to be added.
It may of course be the only way that they can get us to buy Far Eastern built motors, but even so.

Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.
