Hi Steemit family!
This group is not made up specifically of Chinese citizens, in the company Byton there are some former employees and executives of companies such as Tesla, BMW, and Apple. They developed this first electric car becoming the number 1 competitor of Tesla, the famous American electric car company.
Byton was exhibited in the important and prestigious technological fair CES in the city of Las Vegas, where they presented the performance and profitability of this car that by 2019 will be available in China for about $ 45,000.
This car will have a powerful artificial intelligence computer that will provide a totally renovating experience in this class of cars. Something that would certainly not be possible without the ingenuity of German manufacturing, and silicon valley technology.
The first impression is of an ordinary sedan, but internally it has some things that make it unique, for example, it is equipped with a 50-inch screen that occupies the entire dashboard. This system has been called: Shared Experience Display, also has 3 additional screens 2 for rear passengers and one installed on the steering wheel.
It also has built-in Alexa, Amazon's virtual assistant, and has a powerful connection of 5G, other utilities are its facial recognition, which can also identify passengers, based on a first climb, the computer can adapt according to weight and size of passenger seats, even monitoring heart rate and blood pressure.
The car is a 100% electric L3 autonomous driving system and can be upgraded to L4 in 2020, with this can drive 90% of situations, depending on the regulation of each country, has two engines that allow an autonomy of 520 km and are 90 Kwh and the second is 71 Kwh that will allow you to have an autonomy of 400 km. And it can be loaded in just 30 minutes, this is one of the most important points that give a good entry to compete with Tesla.
This car will be manufactured entirely in China and of course, its launch will be in the Asian giant and if sales go as expected then in 2020 would be in the United States and Europe.
Being a new generation car that is intimately linked to the world of artificial intelligence, they have put Byton, as if it was bytes on wheels, behind this great investment is the Asian giant Tencent that has put a figure of 200 million dollars for the development and implementation of this car that promotes the use of clean energy.
Clean energy is a great bet to stop using fossil fuels, which have left a disastrous impact on the planet, it is interesting as every day is more common to find a project where this linked clean energy, although in itself the construction of the vehicle demands fossil energy, is a step forward.
We must remember that a few years ago this type of electric car projects was something that consumers were generally mocking, especially the European consumer who are very accustomed to brands of large manufacturers with super powerful engines such as Ferrari, Mercedes Benz or BMW. Which has been for more than 100 years at the top of this market that is changing course by leaps and bounds.
