This enables enhanced 3D scanning of the car’s surroundings in greater detail and helps prepare the car for autonomous driving.
Android Automotive OS is the in-car operating system, co-developed with Google and fronted by a 14.5-inch centre display.
With its 111 kWH battery pack the car is said to have a range of 610 km.
