Kenwood DPX 406DAB review

This Kenwood DAB is decent if you’re after something under £200

Kenwood DPX 406DAB
Overall Auto Express rating

3.0

Best price: £167.18 Type: Double DIN

This Kenwood DAB is decent if you’re after something under £200, but it feels rather dated compared to our top two – either of which will be a better, albeit more expensive, option. While rivals have touchscreens, this makes do with a raft of buttons, although they’re solid and good to use. One look at the spec sheet reveals that the DPX 406DAB represents strong value, as it includes Bluetooth for music streaming and hands-free calling. However, in practice, these features would have been more impressive with a better pairing process.

Zip-merging is fairer, faster and recommended by all the experts. So why do UK drivers refuse to do it?

Steve Walker is completely flummoxed as to why UK drivers can’t get their heads around this simple principle.
