The world is changing and so is our automobiles. Cars are embracing new advancements very rapidly. Be it the inclusion of AI tech, advanced connectivity, or some new features car manufacturers are stepping up to the plate to deliver car models for every consumer’s lifestyle.

Driverless cars

A self-driving car is a model that can drive itself without human intervention in most conditions. Driverless cars have many potential benefits, such as improving safety, reducing traffic, and saving time. They use advance sensors and cameras to map their surrounding and then with the help of AI they can navigate their way around. We can get a feel of this tech in ADAS technology presently used in cars today. ADAS keeps the cars in the lane and maintains a safe distance from nearby cars. Currently, driverless cars face many challenges, such as technical, ethical, legal, and social issues.

Connected Cars

Connected cars are cars that can communicate with the internet, road infrastructure, or other vehicles and devices through a wireless network.

When our mobiles, laptops, and now even bulbs and fans are becoming connected why should cars be left behind? It is becoming a trend in the automobile industry to develop connected cars. Cars are now living on the Internet where you can view all stats of your cars on your mobile phone. The cars could be even controlled remotely. In connected car theory, it is believed the cars could communicate with each other on the roads which will be integrated with self-driving technology.

New types of car fuels

We all are aware of the penetration of EVs in the world dominated by IC engines. EVs are claimed to be eco-friendly, have better torque, and are cost-effective. Hydrogen fuel is also gradually making its entry in the car market where hydrogen fuel cells are being used for powering cars. When hydrogen is burned, water is released in the atmosphere which makes them eco-friendly. Also refueling time is very less compared to EVs. Another types of fuel is hybrid fuel technology, Hybrid cars combine two or more types of power sources, such as petrol and electric, diesel and electric, or hydrogen and electric. Hybrid cars can offer the best of both worlds, such as lower emissions, higher fuel economy, and better performance.

These are some of the future technologies in cars that could be powering your car in the future. Each technology has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of the best technology depends on various factors, such as availability, cost, performance, and environmental impact.
