Yes, you read it right! Fresh from CES 2020, Sony announced an electric concept car, and it is named VISION-S. The Sony VISION-S is the company’s first-ever electric concept car.
The VISION-S shows the company’s efforts in pursuing safety, reliability, comfort, and entertainment. This prototype vehicle incorporates Sony’s imaging and sensing technologies, as well as on-board software regulated using Sony’s AI, telecommunication and cloud technologies, in order to continuously update and evolve its features.
The exterior of the VISION-S looks like the combination of Tesla, Porsche, and Lucid Air. It has a total of 33 sensors including CMOS image sensors and ToF sensors are embedded within the vehicle.
Inside the car, it has a panoramic screen on the dashboard. The car also features 360 Reality Audio, which provides a deep and immersive audio experience through speakers built into each seat to encapsulate passengers in sound.
The VISION-S is an all-wheel-drive electric vehicle with a pair of 268hp (210kW) electric motors on the front and rear. It has a top speed of 240km/h and 0-100km/h only takes 4.8 seconds.
Now, this is something interesting from Sony, but will we ever see it in Malaysia?
