"We offer the highest level of security within the auto industry," said Wilson. "Security is in our DNA. It is how the company was formed."
Steinberg and Wilson go inside an Aston Martin vehicle powered by Blackberry's QNX software technology at CES. Wilson explains this infotainment system is integrated with Google apps.
Mike Dooley, Co-founder and CEO of Labrador Systems, joins Cheddar News to discuss the company's 'Labrador Retriever' personal robot, aiming to support caregivers and help people with health issues live independently.
Volkswagen U.S. CEO Pablo Di Si joined Cheddar New to discuss record quarterly electric vehicle sales and his reaction to Tesla trimming prices on some vehicles by 20% last week. “We'll continue with our pricing strategy, we're not cutting prices on the vehicle's quality over quantity and product content,” he said.
Microsoft is cutting 10,000 workers, almost 5% of its workforce, in response to what it described as “macroeconomic conditions and changing customer priorities.”
