  • Behind the wheel of an autonomous car

    A couple of years ago Nissan made the bold claim it will launch on the market an autonomous car by 2020. It was later revealed that Nissan’s autonomous car wouldn’t be capable of driving itself in all situations and that a licensed driver would still need to be behind the wheel. That isn’t entirely Nissan’s fault, as the technology for a fully autonomous car will likely be available by the end of the decade (much of it is already available today). Rather, as Renault Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn reminds us, a host of regulatory, legal and security issues will need to be...

  • MINI Augmented Vision concept, 2015 Shanghai Auto Show

The concept is basically a set of glasses that aims to make driving easier, though the device can also be used outside the car. Using see-through technology, the AR...

  • Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 SuperVeloce
