Get ready to experience the future of transportation with the exciting debuts from CES 2023.
BMW stole the show with their constantly changing, AI-powered color changing car. But that’s not all – the Attitude also comes with a very human-like personality. And if that wasn’t enough, the car also boasts a head up display stretching from pillar to pillar, capable of taking over the entire windshield.
Drivers can switch between a simple display for driving and an augmented or even virtual reality display for self-driving situations. While the Attitude may not make it into production, you can expect to see a toned-down version in BMW’s Next Generation electrified vehicles as early as 2025.
But BMW wasn’t the only one making waves at the conference. Ram Trucks’ electric pickup truck, the Bev, made a strong entrance into the race with its striking exterior design made possible by a Stella frame Next Generation platform.
The batteries are stored in the frame and the dual electric motors are pushed to the extremes, allowing for an extra four inches of cabin length. The cabin itself is extremely flexible, with seats and a console that slide and swivel, as well as a dual display dashboard with a removable lower screen. The Bev even has a power midgate that can be lowered to create a path through to the front, opening up 18 feet of enclosed cargo space. Production versions of the Bev are set to release later this year with an expected launch in 2024.
But the real showstopper was Peugeot’s new hyper Square steering concept – a steer-by-wire square wheel with four inset rings that drivers can use to control various elements of the vehicle’s performance.
Conceived with autonomy in mind, the hyper Square can be tucked away when the Inception is driving itself, freeing up space in the spacious, flexible cabin for passengers to relax.
And that’s not all – Sony made a surprise entry into the electric car market with their concept sedan, featuring a full-width visor and a minimalist body.
The dashboard has evolved since Sony’s previous CES concepts, the Vision S and Vision S SUV, and the electric sedan is packed with technology, including a holographic display, gesture control, and advanced autonomous driving capabilities.
The Byton M-Byte, an all-electric SUV with a massive 48-inch dashboard display, was another standout at the conference.
The car boasts a sleek design and advanced technology, including facial recognition, personalized profiles, and a range of over 250 miles.
Last but not least, the GAC Aion S made a splash with its fully autonomous capabilities and impressive range of over 300 miles.
The electric vehicle boasts a spacious interior and advanced connectivity features.
With so many exciting developments on the horizon, the future of transportation is looking brighter than ever. Keep an eye out for these game-changing designs hitting the market in the coming years.
