    The EV will also have a new safety tech called the "driver understanding system.” Its real-time interior sensing system can help the car recognize when the driver is not in a suitable condition for driving and thus take precautions to prevent accidents. The advanced safety kit will also have a hands-free highway driving assist called Ride Pilot.
