Here at MotorWorld Hyundai, we're always excited to see what kind of new vehicles and technology are in the works. Our Hyundai dealers aren't just people that can help you find the perfect car. They're also big fans of Hyundai vehicles themselves. One kind of technology that's becoming more important in the auto industry is autonomous and semi-autonomous capabilities. Now it looks like the Hyundai brand is working on its own version of the technology.
The Hyundai Ioniq is the test bed for this new tech, and it might be the perfect choice. That's because it can come equipped with three different powertrains. Autonomous features need to be compatible with a wide range of vehicles, including the green models of the future. This model is available as a hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or as an all-electric model. So the Hyundai brand is developing technology that's compatible with each of these vehicles.
Right now this test vehicle is equipped with all sorts of sensors that can help it detect safety hazards and react quickly. For now it's limited to level three autonomy, which means that a driver is still required. The eventual goal is level four autonomy, which doesn't even require a human driver. The semi-autonomous Hyundai Ioniq can currently handle situations involving pedestrians and other cars, even in busy intersections. The car can even use a combination of radar and GPS technologies to handle obstacles like speed bumps. We can't wait to see what other vehicle tech is in the works!
