If Tesla And Porsche Had A Baby

In one of the biggest announcements at the 2020 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), Sony has just revealed their latest project, an electric concept car by the name of Vision-S. Hybridised looks from Tesla and Porsche aside, it is a testament to the conglomerate’s strength, and showcases the breadth of ability the tech giant possesses. Let’s talk headlines.

The Vision-S has 33 different sensors inside and outside of the car, multiple widescreen displays within the interior, 360 audio, and always-on connectivity. Parts are supplied from several third party companies from the likes of BlackBerry and Bosch, while the newly developed EV platform is engineered by Magna, that’s modular in case Sony wants to expand its vehicular lineup.

While no details of its range, price, and availability are spilled, it’s safe to assume that the vehicle will compete with the likes of the Porsche Taycan, judging from its cross-drilled brakes and enlarged calipers. Its a clear example of the demand for electric vehicles, and who better to do an electronic driven car than an electronic derived company?

In the meantime, gawp at the pictures, and let us know what you think!
