At the Consumer Electronics Show, the company said the two new cars — the Honda 0 Saloon and Honda 0 SUV — will feature “next-generation technologies,” such as automatic driving with AI technology and a new operating system, which would allow the driver to perform other tasks while being behind the wheel, such as joining a virtual meeting.
