Modern cars come loaded with numerous tech and features. While a few of them are totally unnecessary, some of them are a boon to have. One such useful feature is the 360-degree camera.
As the name suggests, this feature provides a 360-degree view of the surroundings. For this, the system uses a minimum of 4 cameras to show the front, rear, and sides of the car – Making parking and navigating through tight traffic a breeze.
Though this system once used to be reserved for high-end luxury cars, the feature has become very common in recent years. As such, here are the 5 most affordable SUVs with 360-degree camera.
