Advances in the automotive industry are changing the relationship between cars and drivers. Advanced driver assistant systems, such as navigation systems, advanced cruise control, collision avoidance systems, and other safety systems, are now common and assist the driver in controlling the car. Smart key fobs have made getting in and starting the car almost effortless: The fob can be left in the pocket and the doors will unlock when a driver/user approaches the car and simply touches the door handle. This is a level of personalization and convenience that is almost standard today. The research presented here brings a new perspective on personalization and driver assistance systems. An online survey was conducted, which aimed to gather public opinion on the usefulness of endowing future (semi-)autonomous cars with social and cognitive behavior, such as the ability to learn drivers' routines and preferences in order to make decisions and perform actions in preparation for the next trip and to manage comfort within the cockpit without being commanded to do so. After filtering, the study included 657 respondents from 93 nations. The results demonstrate a favorable opinion towards such human-centered cognitive vehicles and could be helpful for designers in the automotive industry and other related stakeholders in the development of future cognitive vehicles. ; This work is supported by the European Structural and Investment Funds in the FEDER component, through the Operational Competitiveness and Internationalization Programme (COMPETE 2020) [Project nº 039334; Funding Reference: POCI-01-0247-FEDER-039334]
