BMW presented a level five autonomous driving car at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on Monday, a car that would allow its driver to completely take his or her mind off the road, enabling the driver to eat, watch a movie, or even sleep behind the wheel. However, the level five autonomous car still has a way to go before being realised. In the meantime, BMW expects to get level 3 autonomous vehicles called iNEXT on the road by 2021.
An all-new hybrid 'universal transport' prototype was showcased at the MAKS airshow in Russia on Wednesday, called the BORTS Triton, a wheeled offroad vehicle which has also has hovercraft capabilities as well an aerochute, which means that this one of a kind auto can conquer the land, water, and skies.

Nanjing subway station revealed its automated guided vehicle (AGV) robotic parking garage, which significantly reduces the time and space needed to park a car. Drivers simply need to book a space using a mobile phone application, leave their vehicle at the entrance of the garage, where a lifter delivers the car underground and a robotic roller transports the car to the parking space. Parking time is between two to three minutes and the design uses up to 40 percent less space than the average lot. The recently completed system, which is currently in its final test phase, is expected to be put into operation following the Chinese New Year.
Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn unveiled details of the latest model of the second-generation Nissan Leaf at the Consumer Electronics Show 2017 and introduced the company's new system for handling self-driving cars, dubbed Seamless Autonomous Mobility, or SAM.
