Thought you"d wait for an old-fashioned motor show" to have a butchers at the new Fisker EMotion, did you? No, that"s not how the car reveal game works these days. You must flaunt it at a tech show. Which is why Fisker is bringing the new EMotion, with its fast-charging capability and self-driving prowess to the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas come January 2018. That"s right, the EMotion will stand alongside new VR headsets and audio systems, rather than a hall of overpolished motor cars.The technology behind the Fisker"s real-world autonomous driving" are the LiDAR sensors, which 3D-map their environment so the car can accurately identify obstacles, other road users, and so on. As carmakers struggle to integrate the massive amount of cameras, sensors and lasers/radars into the noses of their cars, Fisker"s going to make the centre nosecone" of the EMotion its trademark, proudly putting the LiDAR gubbins front and centre as a styling feature.
