The cars are exhibited inside thearea Electrification, chosen by Stellantis to make known its capabilities in the field of electrification of passenger compartment technology, range and connectivity.
Fully electric, it has been designed to meet the needs of zero-emission mobility in the urban centers of the future. The first city car with level 2 driving assistance is now available in 3 body variants (sedan, convertible and 3 + 1) and with a infotainment Uconnect 5th generation.
Always Stellantis officially debuts the Jeep Grand Cherokee in version ibrida plug-in 4xe. Like the previous versions, pleasant to drive, comfortable and well finished. For the passengers of the rear seat there will be the possibility of having two 10 ”screens, 1 and functionality of TV in streaming, games and music. News under the hood is the power-unit consisting of a 2.0 four-cylinder turbo petrol engine and 2 electric motors for a total of 375 hp with 637 Nm of torque. L’autonomy declared in electric about 40 km.
From South Korea, Hyundai will exhibit its line of robotic objects, including the Mobile Eccentric Droid (MobED), born from a platform motorized that will be able to guarantee future urban mobility solutions for the delivery of all goods: from the heaviest ones to the more fragile and delicate ones such as the “transport” of babies in cots.
For the American Chrysler the time has come to show the definitive version of theAirflow Concept, the car conceived as Tesla’s antagonist, conceived for a “life on board” made of entertainment at the highest levels: 75 “of total screens, personalized services, augmented reality as well as the possibility to go wild with thee-commerce by making payments directly from the infotainment system.
There is also her debut on the show on the Strip TOGG, Turkish company for sustainable mobility. Which officially presents the first electric suv (500 km of autonomy), with which it aims to carve out a space in the zero-emission car market.

Furthermore, virtual viewer – the transparent digital sun visor – will be able to solve the problem of conventional sun visors, which protect drivers from glare, but often obstruct a large part of the field of vision. Among the solutions based on the software, Bosch presents theAdvanced Driving Module (ADM) which reduces the complexity in the development of electric cars by increasing the efficiency for car manufacturers; as well as thetechnical process assistant (TPA), part of a connected after-sales ecosystem. Finally, Smart connected bike solution – e-bike riding enjoyment 2.0, the new generation of Bosch eBike Systems which combines the physical experience of riding an e-bike with the digital one provided by connectivity and an app. The solution received the CES 2022 Innovation Awards Honoree in the “Vehicle Intelligence Transportation” category.
