Motor Authority on the Cars Stealing the Show at CES
Joel Feder, interactive content manager for Motor Authority, discusses which automakers blew him away at CES this year. Driverless cars, electric vehicles, and new interfaces turned the expo into something of an auto show.
Feder says Byton, a new electric car company from former BMW and Mercedes Benz employees, was the talk of the event. Byton is looking to compete with Tesla eventually but is still a few years away.
Lyft unveiled its not-quite-driverless car. The vehicle will be automated but still have a wheel and gas and brake pedals in case a driver is needed.
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.
