CES 2021: Car dashboards are getting even smarter


The MBUX Hyperscreen will be inaugurated with the future Mercedes EQS. — Daimler

For several years now, cars have had a prominent place at the CES in Las Vegas. For this 2021 edition, which this year is entirely virtual, manufacturers are revolutionising the good old dashboard, which has been transformed into a real digital console. Both Mercedes and BMW are making a splash in this area with their new touch-sensitive and intelligent interfaces.

It's hard to miss the MBUX Hyperscreen presented by Mercedes, which will adorn (as an option) the dashboard of its future large electric sedan EQS, to be launched this year. Extremely impressive, this curved screen covers almost the entire dashboard and concentrates all the information necessary for driving and infotainment in one location. But it's also packed with artificial intelligence, which materialises as personalised suggestions on the screen for driving comfort and entertainment.
