what is going on in the world ?
A futuristic car which 'talks' to other vehicles to avoid accidents has been revealed in Shanghai.
The EN-V ('Electric Networked-Vehicle) by General Motors is a fraction of size of most cars, only has two seats and is propelled by electric motors in each of its two driving-mode wheels.
While it is unlikely to excite Jeremy Clarkson, makers say the 1.5 metre by 1.5 metre car is designed to be the ultimate fuel-efficient vehicle for future cities.
EN-V is lightweight and emission-free, it can also be driven manually or navigate itself via an elaborate GPS system -- but it does only have a maximum speed of 24mph
But GM have got plenty of time to work on that, they say the car isn't likely to be on roads until 2030.
