Nissan Easy Ride Autonomous Driving Taxis

We’re all imagining a time when we can have our own personal chauffer in the form of an autonomous car. Even though plenty of us enjoy the freedom of driving ourselves, it also can seem like a lot of our lives are wasted behind the wheel.

It seems that the official unveiling of a sixth-generation 2019 Nissan Altima will come to us in March, when the 2018 NYIAS show happens. We don’t know much, but we have some speculation. (more…)

There are fun aspects to buying a new car, like going on a test drive and learning about new features, and then there are not-so-fun aspects to shopping. One of them? Having to haggle with salespeople who are well-versed in the process. Even if you’re no slouch yourself, it can be time-consuming to negotiate and the back-and-forth likely doesn’t feel as if it’s worth it.

Self-driving cars are expected. Self-driving slippers? Maybe not so much. It’s more for fun than for any practical purpose, but Nissan has put its self-driving technology into slippers, tables and even floor cushions to show the usefulness of the technology. Basically, some of the furniture and the slippers have designated spots where they belong and can return when not in use. You’ll see what we’re talking about in this video. (more…)
