Self-Driving Tahoe Is A Star

At the Consumer Electronics Show, one car is a sure star and that is the Tahoe. And what car do you think could upstage a self-driving car?
Ever dreamt of riding a car without worrying how to maneuver and how to get to your desired destination? Your dream is just a few steps away.
The experimental self-driving sport utility vehicle from Chevy dubbed “The Boss” was developed by General Motors in partnership with Carnegie Mellon University. It is named Boss after the nickname of GM Research and Development founder Charles Kettering and it is the undisputed top star of the Consumer Electronics Show so far this week, with network TV news segments and long lines of very impressed reporters, writes Mike Wendland, Free Press Technology columnist.
General Motors Chairman Rick Wagoner is expected to unfold the details of the SUV Tuesday in his keynote speech. According to GM, the vehicles is equipped with all sorts of technology that includes radar, motion and heat sensors, laser vision, GPS, mapping and navigation gear, and more. The automaker is proud to unveil a vehicle that recognizes road shape, curves, obstacles and can even dodge and swerve around road hazards.
The Detroit-based automaker has set up a convention center at CES to showcase its recent magnum opus. The technology is so striking that I couldn’t help but wait to see it on the roads. Actually, I want to experience the amazing technology that GM is offering. And it keeps me wondering, when will my dream turn into reality? I hope not too long.
The Tahoe, since its introduction in the market, serves as an important model for GM. This is why the automaker finds ways to make it even better. Using quality distributor cap, engines, radiator, filters, and other traditional auto parts isn’t enough. Groundbreaking innovation is the key.
To note, GM unveiled a hybrid version of the Tahoe last fall. But it didn’t stop there. It won’t stop with the self-driving Tahoe either.
