CNET Editors' review - Pioneer AVIC Z-1

Excellent

8.4

out of 10
CNET Editor's rating: 8.4 out of 10
Reviewed by Kevin Massy
Review date: 8/11/06

The good: A user-friendly touch-screen interface and a decent voice-recognition system combine with intelligent navigation and Bluetooth to make the AVIC Z-1 a one-stop shop for major cabin tech.

The bad: The need to activate the parking brake to program the navigation is overly cautious, and some delays in start-up and music playback can be frustrating.

The bottom line: The Pioneer AVIC Z-1 is an impressive all-in-one aftermarket head unit incorporating most of today's in-car technology features. Despite a few usability glitches, it is a competitively priced car tech package.
