Nissan IDS Concept

The Nissan IDS Concept previews Nissan's advancements in EV and autonomous driving technologies. Autonomous technologies are often criticised of being too robotic, but the IDS Concept is rather adaptive. From accelerating to braking to cornering, the car imitates the driver's own style and preferences. The interior differs for the two driving modes: Piloted Drive and Manual Drive. On selecting Piloted Drive (autonomous driving), the cabin becomes more spacious; the steering wheel recedes into the centre of the instrument panel and a large flat screen comes out. Nissan plans to equip autonomous drive technology on multiple vehicles by 2020.
