Dansk bildesigner rullar ut helt självkörande elbil
Den danske bildesignern och entreprenören Henrik Fisker har stora planer på att ta upp kampen om elbilsmarknaden med Tesla, skriver DN. Fisker ska nämligen bygga en sportig elbil som ska nå den högsta toppfarten, ha den längsta räckvidden och dessutom ha mest avancerade batteriet av alla elbilar på marknaden.
Bilen, kallad Emotion, ska utrustas med teknologi som gör att den kan köra helt själv, skriver tidningen. Bygget beräknas vara färdigt under nästa år.
