When the Amalfi is put in reverse, the passenger rearview mirror tilts from its original position. This gives the driver a better view of the curb during parallel parking maneuvers. Shifting out of reverse puts the mirror into its original position. The MCPura’s mirror doesn’t automatically adjust for backing.
On extremely cold winter days, the Amalfi’s standard heated steering wheel provides comfort, allowing the driver to steer safely and comfortably before the car heater warms up. The MCPura doesn’t offer a heated steering wheel.
