Driving has its merits, obviously. If you live in North America, I'd bet you live in a non-walkable city. Your commute to work might be an hour or more.
If you're someone, like me, who isn't the biggest fan of driving, there are six things that will make your experience behind the wheel so much better.
Keep reading as we highlight six must-have car accessories in 2025. Starting with the Drift Car Freshener.
What We Looked For
- Quality of Life Above all else, these products will improve your life behind the wheel.
- Convenience These products shouldn't create any hassle or nuisance for you. Easy to use, hard to break, and low maintenance.
- Design Simple, practical designs that elevate the feel of your car.
- Tech & Intelligent Integration Finally, products that had a clever integration with the tech in your car got extra points. But it's not all tech!
1. Drift Car Freshener
A staple of cars is the car freshener. Sometimes a weird smell just appears and lingers in your car for a while. There's nothing that will ruin your commute like a bad smell, so Drift is our #1 pick.
Drift has a range of natural scents like Amber (Vanilla, Golden Amber, and French Lavender) and Cabana (Toasty Coconut, Bergamot, and Cederwood). These scents are all going to boost your car's atmosphere to a level that the pine tree cutout can't reach.
Staff Pick
Drift Car Freshener
Best Scents
The perfect entry point into a lifetime of never dull shaves. Whether as a gift or for yourself, this bundle gives you all you need to start shaving irritation free. Contains a Henson Razor, the Henson Shave Cream and our Blades for Life membership which gives you a fresh blade every week for the next 50 years.
Tested & Approved
The Wood Car Freshener delivers on using natural scents, but undersells itself when it comes to the quality of the scents.
2. Nomad Charge Mount
We're fans of Nomad Good's sport band, that's no secret. But does the car mount hold up? Yes. Nomad Goods are experts when it comes to MagSafe accessories. This mount is handsfree, sleek, and delivers 7.5W charging for your iPhone.
If you haven't been tried a phone mount in your car before, this will be a huge upgrade to the quality of your drive. Especially for those longer drives, switching songs, or picking up phone calls mid-drive.
3. Saucemoto Dip Clip
Ok hear me out here... Have you ever been on a shitty commute, stopped for some nuggs, and then had to play that awkward game of trying to dip and drive? Well this Shark Tank guest made a product to fix it. Even better than having an easy access dip cup is getting to prove Mark Cuban wrong.
4. Bluetti AC70
If you're going on a roadtrip or camping, portable power will save your life. The Bluetti AC730 is compact, fast charging, solar-powered, has a 768wh capacity, and offers 7 outlets. It's up there on our list of portable power, and a Must-Have for when you need reliable, off-grid power.
5. BlackVue Dash Camera
I was a dashcam hater for a long time. I had the cheapest one you could find. It kept falling off my window, didn't connect to anything, and had the smallest sd card on earth. That was until I got cut off and narroly avoided an accident. Believe me, a reliable dashcam is necessary.
The DR970X by BlackVue is the pinnacle of dashcams. It's got Wifi, LTE, and 4k recording.
6. HUDWAY Drive
HUDWAY is here to turn literally any car into a futuristic machine. Finally, a way to live out your cyberpunk dream, without the whole megacorp dystopian stuff. The HUDWAY Drive is a heads up display that can display your route, spedometer, and widgets right on your dash. This gives you all the functions you need without having ot look down at your phone, and risk getting a ticket.
It does come with some downsides, like not being able to see the HUD while wearing polarized sunglasses. If you're driving with sunglasses on pretty often, this may not be the device for you. Sorry.
Why Drift is the #1 Car Accessory
While I'd consider any of these as a good recommendation, Drift comes out as the Must-Have product. Nothing else on the list adds this much value, solves such a common issue, and is so aesthetically pleasing as Drift.
The best part to me is the monthly scent subscription. As someone who can't stick to the same cologne for more than a week, having just one scent for my car drives me insane. You can look into the Scent of the Month Club by clicking here
So, if you're ready do your nose a favor, and live a life of enjoyable driving, join over 30,000 customers by choosing Drift..
