Sure, today flying in a car seems like a dream but the future is full of possibilities, and with what General Motors presented at CES, it's fair to say, you may soon be able to take off in a car. The auto giant introduced the future of transportation with its flying Cadillac - a self-driving vehicle which carries the passenger above land and through the thin air. The single-person car, a VTOL (vertical take-off and landing) drone, can speed up to 55 miles per hour.

The ultra-lightweight flying Cardillac is paired with four rotors, and comes with a 90kWmtoro and a GM Ultium battery pack. It's all-electric and fully autonomous.

German luxury automotive giant, Mercedes Benz made an impact with its MBUX hyperscreen - a 56-inch sleek screen unit comprising three smooth displays merged together. With an aesthetically pleasing design and easy device controls, Benz upped the game with its hyperscreen. It's by far the most intelligent human-machine interface built by the German carmaker.

The hyperscreen not only adjusts easily to the user but is also interactive through its infotainment suggestions. Its display is powered by 8 CPU cores, 24-gigabyte RAM and 46.5 GB per second RAM memory bandwidth. The multifunctional camera and sensor adapt to the display brightness as per the lighting conditions.

German luxury vehicles giant, BMW gave us a glimpse of its next-generation iDrive infotainment system, all set to launch on the new iX electric SUV debuting late 2021. iDrive, which was launched in 2001, appearing for the first time in the E65 7 Series, has kept its control dial that rotates and can be tapped, pushed and pressed.

For the iX, the current model comes with touch-sensitive icons with a single large panel bosting two displays for maps, media, driver information among other things.

Intel-owned Mobileye announced updates for use in autonomous vehicles. The company said that by 2025, it wants to move towards using its radar-based technology and single lidar sensor per vehicle in a bid to lower autonomous driving expenses. It plans to tap sensors from Luminar Technologies Inc for a planned fleet of so-called robotaxis, which are commercial vehicles meant to carry passengers. Starting 2022, the robotaxis, combined with four Luminar units each, will roll out in at least eight different cities, Mobileye CEO Amnon Shashua informed during a Q&A session at CES 2021.

The consumer system 2025 will have a single lidar unit with the entire vehicle covered with cameras and a new radar-based system which is being developed by the company.

With a teaser image, General Motors announced two new versions of the Chevy Bolt that will arrive next month. The cars will have the company's advanced driver assistance system, Super Cruise, similar to Tesla's Autopilot. The Super Cruise uses radar, cameras, LIDAR mapping data and a driver monitoring system.

The cars will be updated versions of the Bolt -,which was launched in 2017, and Bolt Electric Utility Vehicle (EUV). The new models will flaunt sharper look and adjustable cruise control among other interesting features.
