Sony Vision-S

Sony has shocked everyone at the ongoing Consumer Electronics Show (CES), unveiling an all-electric car dubbed the Vision-S. The Japanese giant has revolutionized the music industry with its Walkman and video games with Playstation. Now Sony has announced its first step in the field of car mobility, presenting a vehicle that serves as a showcase for the automotive technology the company is currently working on. It features no less than 33 sensors including CMOS image sensors, Solid State LiDAR, and radar embedded across the exterior that allow it to detect and recognize people and objects outside the vehicle, as well as monitor the passengers. There is also multiple widescreen displays, 360 audio, always-on connectivity, displays that serve as a replacement for the rearview mirrors, and 360 Reality Audio´s integrated seat speakers that surround every passenger with immersive sound. Power is provided by a pair of 200 kW electric motors and the concept can reportedly hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in a brisk 4.8 seconds and a 149 mph (239 km/h) top speed. It also features a double wishbone front and rear suspension with an air spring system, and all-wheel-drive. watch the video below
