Chevy Shows Off Futuristic Self-Driving EV at Shanghai Auto Show
Cars being pushed by today’s car makers are much different than they were just 10-15 years ago. The automotive industry has come a long way over the years, and there is no denying that things are changing even more with each passing day.
Here are two things consumers should be looking forward to in the years to come:
- More electric vehicle models
- The introduction of self-driving vehicles
But what happens when you combine the two? Well, GM is doing its best to show people what a self-driving electric vehicle looks like. The company unveiled its Chevrolet-FNR concept at the Shanghai Auto Show.
We may be a few years out from self-driving vehicles taking to the road, but electric vehicles are already here to stay, and will soon be at * Miami Chevy dealers * .
This vehicle, developed by GM’s Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC) joint venture, already has people talking. This is due in large part to its futuristic design, including dragonfly dual swing doors, a wireless auto-charge system, and magnetic hubless wheel electric motors.
GM is well aware that the vehicle is equipped with technology that is typically saved for science fiction movies. For example, there are sensors on the roof that allow the vehicle to driver without operator interference. Furthermore, the car has the ability to determine the best driving route based on destination.
As if that is not enough, get this: when the car is put in self-driving mode, the front seats can swivel to face the back seats, allowing for more convenient conversation.
There is no denying the fact that the Chevrolet-FNR concept is farfetched and not likely to reach the road anytime in the near future. Even so, this proves that GM is on the cutting edge in terms of self-driving and electric vehicles.
The Shanghai Auto Show was a big success for GM, thanks to the unveiling of the Chevrolet-FNR concept as well as many other models, such as the all-new Malibu.
