A famous car manufacturer Hyundai in the face, apparently, going to make one of the most interesting stands at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show 2019. And this is not another statement of some of the public relations Department, and it is a real announcement, the likes of which go to and not remember. This new product will have to the automotive industry is very indirect relationship. So, meet: Elevate — a four-legged robotic Rover.
Thus, the concept of Robo-legs can be quite a viable and even oust passable four-wheel-drive cars, because, roughly speaking, “step over” the pit is much safer than in her “call”.
It is also worth noting that the new vehicle will run on the electric motor, and Hyundai themselves call it “a vehicle with maximum mobility” — Ultimate Mobility Vehicle (UMV). In fact it turns out that the carmaker just replace the 4 wheels on robotic legs, but it still looks extremely interesting and curious.
POI the journalists of some editions don’t even compare Elevate with some cars, but they managed to find a similarity with the concept Swincar Spider shown in 2015. Then the device was a “capsule on legs” that can walk. But beyond the concept, it never went.
For more information about Elevate Hyundai kept secret until the official presentation, which will take place on January 7. But we are promised the presence of the prototype in the exhibition. We also hope to see this car in action.
In addition, Hyundai also recently demonstrated a system of wireless charging, wash/Parking for electric cars. After landing the driver activates the system via smartphone, then the car itself goes to special kasule, where the battery charge. The capsule is placed automatically to others in the same special Parking area.
