Google, Apple, Baidu, more and more technologies have announced the car, and there are also domestic, Ali also involved in car investment. Sony is actually not idle, developed an electric car “Vision-S”, but Sony said it will not be produced.
Sony spokesperson on the 23rd (local time) In an interview with car professional media car & driver: “There is no mass production or sales of Vision-s.”
Xin Xi has been developing, But is not large, Sony is thinking?
We know that Sony is a very powerful company in Japan, and the business involves very broad. So far, Sony is still a leader in the field of global audiovisual, video games, communications products and information technology, and has strong strength.
On the International Household Appliance Exhibition (CES) last year, Sony launched Vision-S, this is an electric concept car with Austrian Magna Middot; Steyr. This has caused great controversy.
The model is equipped with two 200KW motors, the maximum output power is 268 hp, the maximum speed is 240km / h, and is known from the time to 100km / h within 4.8 seconds. In addition, it is equipped with an L2 +-level automatic driving function, which will say that the function will be further improved in the future.
From then on, at this year’s fair, Vision-S has released video on the road of Austria, which further increases the possibility of mass production, but eventually no.
From the appearance, its design is very avant-garde, fashion, front face design is relatively flat, which helps aerodynamics, run through the front The chrome-plated decorative strips are connected to the headlights. The new car also uses the camera rearview mirror, hidden door handles, which are currently more popular.
In terms of interior, the first eye made us think of ideal one, there is a similar design style, interior is a symmetricalDesigned, consisting of multi-liquid crystal screen splicing, each screen, including full LCD, central control screen, entertainment system, and electronic rearview mirror display.
Since Sony has unique advantages in imaging technology, music, display, this model has shown a 360 real audio system in technology. Exquisite stereo, forming a personalized sound area. In addition, video games can be played when driving through 5G technology.
Currently, it is known that in the test phase, an L2 or higher semi-automatic driving feature is equipped with an adaptive cruise control, an automatic parking system, and an automatic trip.
Foreign media said: “The Vision-S concept car is considered to be examples of Sony can apply their images, optical and entertainment as possible as possible to the car as possible.” “Do not rule out for a certain day in the future, A new type of automatic driving electric car will appear in front of the public. “
The such thing has passed the road test vehicle, why Sony Don’t you produce it? 
I think the reasons have the following aspects: First, Sony wants to do parts suppliers, rather than manufacturers. Sony is in an image system, entertainment system, etc. For example, now most of the smartphones are now using Sony’s camera, which means that Sony has unique advantages in imaging systems. Sony is to put this advantage on the car, but the advantages of individual areas do not represent all the advantages, so I guess that Sony is the supplier of smart cars, rather than the manufacturer.
Secondly, if Sony is manufacturing a car, it will also choose to share the risk. Sony’s current car is developing with McNa Middot; Steier. Cars For Sony, it is a new unfamiliar area, and Japan is also developed in the automotive industry, and Toyota, Honda, Mazda these brands, Sony is definitely less cheap in these brands. So Sony is working with traditional automotive manufacturersSelf-owned brand cars, either Sony just wants to become technology and hardware suppliers in the field of smart cars manufacturers.
The current technical test is only a test of Sony to its own technology, and may have discovered some problems that cannot be easily solved in the test, and ultimately leads to Sony not intended. Mass production.
