Go Green - Special

The automotive industry is changing completely. Cars evolve into autonomously driving, fully networked digital devices. Road safety is supposed to increase. But how do assistance systems work? And how safe are independently driving cars? MOTORVISION TV looks over the shoulders of engineers from Daimler - shortly before the launch of the new S-Class in fall 2017.

People want to be connected to the internet - at all times. Luxembourg satellite operator SES offers a network of state-of-the-art satellites. On the world’s biggest cruise liner in the United States, MOTORVISION TV is shown how broadband internet on the high seas works, visits the Control Center of the satellite fleet and steps into a test aircraft.

Ever-increasing volumes of traffic, tight delivery schedules and constant flood of information: Professional drivers don’t have an easy job. But at the same time, modern trucks offer new digital features that make the drive easier and more efficient. MOTORVISION TV visits the Sweden-based traditional manufacturer Volvo Trucks and watches the production of new automation systems.
