When three different drivers share the DBS, the memory system makes it convenient for all three. Each setting activates different, customized memories for the driver and front passenger’s seat positions, steering wheel position and outside mirror angle. The Senna doesn’t offer a memory system.
The DBS’ front power windows open or close fully with one touch of the switches, making it more convenient at drive-up windows and toll booths, or when talking with someone outside the car. The Senna’s power window switches have to be held the entire time to open or close them.
The DBS’ standard power window controls are mounted on the armrest for easy access. The Senna’s available power window controls are in the ceiling, forcing the driver's attention away from the road to locate them.
If the windows are left open on the DBS the driver can close them all from a distance using the remote. On a hot day the driver can also lower the windows the same way. The driver of the Senna can only operate the windows from inside the vehicle, with the ignition on.
The DBS’ power mirror controls are mounted on the armrest for easy access. The Senna’s power mirror controls are on the dash where they are possibly hidden by the steering wheel and are awkward to manipulate.
The DBS has standard heated front seats, which keep the driver and front passenger extremely comfortable in the winter. Heated seats aren’t available in the Senna.
Optional air-conditioned seats in the DBS keep the driver and front passenger comfortable and take the sting out of hot seats in Summer. The Senna doesn’t offer air-conditioned seats.
On extremely cold winter days, the DBS’ optional heated steering wheel provides comfort, allowing the driver to steer safely and comfortably before the car heater warms up. The Senna doesn’t offer a heated steering wheel.
To help keep the driver’s hands on the wheel, the DBS has standard steering wheel controls for the radio. The Senna doesn’t offer steering wheel audio controls.
With standard voice command, the DBS offers the driver hands free control of the radio and the navigation computer by simply speaking. The Senna doesn’t offer a voice control system.
Bluetooth wireless connectivity is standard on the DBS, connecting the driver and passenger’s cell phones to the vehicle systems. This allows them to use the vehicle’s stereo and hand controls to place calls safely and easily. Bluetooth costs extra on the Senna.
The DBS’ Auto Park Assist can parallel park or back into a parking spot by itself, with the driver only controlling speed with the brake pedal. The Senna doesn’t offer an automated parking system.
