When a slew of car components like the infotainment system and driver assist tools can be powered by smart tech, why not the gear shift, too?
On Feb 17, Hyundai Motor Group announced that it has teamed up with Kia Motors Corporation to create the "world's first" ICT (information and communication technology) connected shift system, a tech designed to optimise one's driving experience both by reducing the number of unnecessary shifts and by tailoring the drive to the current road and traffic conditions.
