Say hello to the Honda nueV. Literally, as she will heal back. The Honda nueV study, developed by the Japanese company Cocoro SB and presented at the CES 2017, is a brain on four wheels, which is why it was shown at the Consumer Electronics Show and not at the Auto Show. And speaking of electronics. The car sends excess electricity to the power grid and thus earns money for you. Since it is capable of autonomous driving, it can also bring it to you as an autonomous taxi. Besides, he understands you like a man understands you.
Ford presented its vision of the future in the field of mobility at the Detroit Motor Show (NAISA 2017).

CityGo Urban is a smart e-scooter that represents an excellent alternative to all known forms of transportation that we use for transportation to work or for errands.
