DAB in 60% of new cars
.58% of all new cars registered – almost 250,000 – came with digital radio fitted as standard. That’s an increase of nearly half compared with the same time last year. Four years ago, the proportion of new cars with digital radio was 0% according to industry body Digital Radio UK.
