Automotive Technology has become the practical application of computer science to designing cars.

Google Waymo bringing robot-controlled vehicles to the masses!

Even Hyundai is jumping into the self-driving car arena.

Tesla is now demanding money to keep your car at a charging station after it's topped off so Elon Musk can dig tunnels to relieve congestion?

At $37,000, you want the Chevy Bolt to look like a Ferrari?

Auto Tech training maybe the key to success in the future!

4. thats a good idea cant overcharge the cars.

5. the bolt is very ugly

people are getting way to lazy to drive their own car doesn't seem like a good idea
its a good idea to start charging people if they leave their cars charging after its fully charged

Unknown said...

self driving is just another sign of lazyness

they should make the car look more luxurious

i dont trust self driving cars

Wow wee, so crazy! It is like the Jetsons have really become real! Driverless cars! I may even be alive to see flying cars. Automotive technology seems like an amazing opportunity for the next generation of graduates! This field is integrating vocational and college level skills to prepare our students with 21st Century skills! WONDERFUL AND AMAZING! And a little scary too! Just Sayin......
