SONY Vision-S Concept Car - Worldwide Reveal At CES 2020
15 JAN 2020 · We find ourselves in an age where the cars of the future, once visible only in our imagination, are finally becoming a reality.
It is not only hardware in the form of cars that is changing. The conventions of our daily lives and society are also being transformed.
Sony wanted to communicate re-imagined mobility as we knew it could be. How can we inspire people through mobility? How can we provide greater peace of mind? How can we contribute to society and the environment?
Sony exists as a citizen of society and the Earth. We believe that new human lifestyles exist beyond the realms of new mobility. Sony will work directly toward that ideal.
In order to communicate the thinking behind our engineering developments, a platform in the form of a concept car named the SONY Vision-S has come to life in order to be able to communicate fully the safety, information, entertainment, and sound solutions that can aid and bring to life SONY Corporation's biggest strengths.
Sony will open up a new world of mobility using its visions in creativity and technology.
The Podcast begins with sounds in the CES 2020 SONY Vision-S stage and the personal in-car presentation begins at 2:20.
This Concept Car may never be a production car, but the SONY concepts of SAFETY | ENTERTAINMENT | ADAPTABILITY will be integrated into a car that one may purchase sooner that one thinks.

26 JUN 2019 · The Steel Market Development Institute's Vice President, Automotive Market Jody M. Hall gave the Motor Press Guild members a presentation for their June monthly meeting on Tues. June 25 at 4 p.m. at the Rose Café. The presentation focused on consumer preferences as well as the automotive industry’s commitment to using steel.
With the infiltration of new technology and forms of mobility, the automotive industry is innovating at a rapid rate. Automakers and suppliers are racing to meet current demands and foresee future expanding needs. As autonomous vehicles grow in popularity; performance, value, sustainability and occupant protection will become even more critical.
Given that there are available more than 200 grades of advanced high-strength steel (AHSS), the steel industry is providing automakers numerous benefits in design capabilities, fuel economy, strength, durability, and value for traditional and self-driving vehicles. Many in attendance were treated to a firsthand glimpse at what a ride in an autonomous vehicle may look and feel like through a virtual reality Oculus headset experience.

“Hollywood Dream Machines: Vehicles of Science Fiction and Fantasy” - Opening Panel Discussion
6 MAY 2019 · “Hollywood Dream Machines: Vehicles of Science Fiction and Fantasy” - Opening Panel Discussion
The Petersen Automotive Museum has opened a new exhibit located in the Mullin Family Grand Salon on the first floor, set to run through March 15, 2020, titled “Hollywood Dream Machines: Vehicles of Science Fiction and Fantasy.” This exhibit (over 50 vehicles from 30 production and studio resources, included with The Petersen's own ample collection) is the largest museum exhibition of sci-fi vehicles in the world, and is highlighted by automobiles, costumes, props, and original blueprints from classic and modern-day film series and video games such as "Back to the Future," “Transformers,” “Iron Man,” “Mad Max,” “Halo,” "Knight Rider" - KITT, "Man From U.N.C.L.E." - AMT Piranha, and much more.
The media-only preview on May 4th, 2019 commenced with a panel discussion featuring some of the most celebrated film producers, movie car designers, and coordinators of the past 30+ decades who covered some of the backstories of some of film’s most iconic vehicles, discuss how Hollywood’s “cars of the future” are created, and what they think could be next.
The panel discussion was moderated by film critic, writer, producer Scott Mantz who introduced himself as not just a film and car geek ... but with the added level of also being a huge Si-Fi fan as well, so he was over the moon to be included with this group of folks to interview/moderate.
The panelists included:
** George Hull (Film Designer for “Blade Runner 2049,” “Star Wars: The Last Jedi,” “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,” etc.)
** Josh Hancock (Picture Car Coordinator, President of Joshcar Inc., etc.)
** Harald Belker (Automotive Designer for “Total Recall,” “Batman and Robin,” “Minority Report,” “Iron Man,” “Tron,” etc.)
** Dennis McCarthy (Motion Picture Car Coordinator for “Black Panther”, “Captain Marvel”, “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” etc.)
** Mike Scheffe ("Knight Rider" - KITT, "Back to the Future," "Starship Troopers," "Spider-Man," instructor at At Center School of Design, etc.)
** Bob Gale (Co-creator, co-writer and co-producer of “Back to the Future” and its sequels)
If the opening and display is an indicator as to the success of this unique presentation and collection of extremely rare and artistic examples of imagination coming to life, it is possible that this exhibit may get an extension from its planned March 15, 2020 closing date.
