We see driverless cars donning the roads well equipped with sensors and advanced equipment which help them drive in traffic conditions. Many companies are even testing the possibility of flying cars shortly! Cars are running on batteries and can navigate their way through traffic. We also get to see advanced HMI systems transforming the way people interact with their vehicles.
