Autoliv and Tensor unveiled an innovative new steering wheel that folds completely into the dashboard, which they demonstrated at CES 2026. This innovation addresses one of the most pressing practical issues with high-level autonomous vehicles: put the car in Level 4 mode, where it does all of the driving for you but only under certain conditions and without human intervention, and the wheel simply vanishes, giving passengers more knee room to stretch their legs or do some work.
Caterham is finally bringing its Project V electric sports car to American shores, two years after the initial reveal. The company showed the vehicle at CES 2026 in Las Vegas this week, signaling a serious push into the US market after decades of absence.
Volvo is making another significant jump into electric vehicles with the EX60, a midsize crossover that will be available soon. This one is positioned right in the middle, between the smaller EX40 and the bigger EX90, and it’s geared firmly at families who want a practical electric car that doesn’t sacrifice range or convenience. The exact details will be revealed on January 21, 2026 during a livestreamed event, and production begins in the first half of the year at their Gothenburg factory.
Sony Honda Mobility just had their huge press conference at CES in Las Vegas, but what was the true message? Well, we know the AFEELA 1 sedan will be available later this year. However, the true show-stopper was yet to arrive: the AFEELA Prototype 2026, a compact electric SUV that not only provides clients with another option, but also demonstrates additional space and functionality.
Electric motorcycles have grown in popularity over the years, offering the quiet operation and rapid power you’d expect. To be honest, most models simply lack the range to keep up with longer trips when compared to fire-breathing gas-powered bikes, but Verge Motorcycles of Finland intends to change that with the release of their new TS Pro. This bike is powered by a solid-state battery that charges at an incredible rate, resulting in some serious game-changing competition.
Renault concludes 2025 with a low-key yet momentous achievement for the electric vehicle sector, one that really has people talking. Their one-seater concept vehicle, the Filante Record 2025, managed to travel 1,000 kilometers (626 miles) on a single battery charge while going at highway speeds.

On December 18th, a gleaming new Tesla Cybercab slowly emerged from an underground parking lot in downtown Austin, Texas, and glided onto public highways. The images obtained at the time clearly show that there is no steering wheel, not even a single pedal, and the interior appears to be one large smooth surface with room for two people.
A group of college students in the Netherlands recently debuted a compact electric vehicle called ARIA, which stands for Anyone Repairs It Anywhere. Over the course of a year or so, this inventive group of engineers from Eindhoven University of Technology and a few friends from neighboring schools built a prototype that allows drivers to simply change out parts, eliminating the need to call a mechanic.
