When it comes to future technologies, the first thing that comes to mind is artificial intelligence and machine learning. The strategic goal pursued by many leading automakers is the introduction of artificial intelligence in unmanned vehicles. To this end, a wide variety of projects are being created, and work is underway in all promising areas. Technology does not stand still, and this is good, because this ensures constant development in the automotive industry, increasing economic and environmental efficiency.
Improved cars will undoubtedly be introduced into the fleets of rental companies around the world. When traveling to a rapidly developing country such as the Emirates, it is possible to rent exotic cars in Dubai or electric cars, which are the cars of the future. If you arrive for business or work in a city as varied and saturated as Dubai, then it will be more profitable and more logical for you to rent a Tesla or luxury Porsche/Mercedes to get the best driving experience.
If you are going on a trip with the whole family, including children, then it is better to contact a rental agency with a request to rent a spacious BMW X7 or Audi RSQ8.
Solar Cars
The principle of operation is based on the conversion of solar energy into electrical energy.
The latter becomes a power source for the electric motor installed on the car. If you connect such an engine, auxiliary electronic devices that are responsible for the full operation in different driving modes and a certain number of batteries that provide power reserve, then this will bring the car closer to the usual one.
Thanks to the increase in the efficiency of batteries, the inventors managed to significantly increase the amount of energy generated. Energy-intensive batteries can provide the necessary amount of power for the engine to drive long enough distances. This is especially true when travelling by rental car, because you want to see as many places as possible with a minimum number of stops.
The use of innovative materials for the creation of bodies, improved transmissions, and electric power units had a positive impact. The bodies are made from durable lightweight plastic elements. The transmission contains parts that have the lowest degree of rolling resistance. Instead of conventional electric motors, brushless motors are used. The composition includes poles made of rare earth magnetic alloys.
Some manufacturers install motor wheels, these are power units located on the drive wheels. Such a scheme at times increases the efficiency of the transmission mechanism.
Smart Cars
There is no doubt that artificial intelligence, which is being so actively introduced by engineers in many leading countries around the world into the design of cars, is making significant changes to the existing car market. This is manifested not only in the active transition from gasoline and diesel cars to the latest electric vehicles.
The influence of new technologies built on the principles of artificial intelligence is changing the structure of the car market itself. Most likely, in the near future, rental companies will be interested in offering customers more economical and environmentally friendly cars. In addition to being profitable in terms of money, this is an excellent marketing campaign to attract car rental customers.
A smart car is, in the mass consciousness, a cross between a car and a robot with artificial intelligence. In reality, this is the name of vehicles that are superior in a number of parameters to standard cars. You can call a car smart for various reasons:
- Self-governance;
- Advanced navigation system;
- Environmental friendliness;
- Use of alternative fuels.
AI in the car makes the trip more than just moving from the starting point to the destination. Modern equipment makes driving safer, acts as an additional sense, helps the driver to move around, reduces the likelihood of an accident, and allows the motorist to concentrate less on the road without negative consequences.
Artificial intelligence in cars is able to completely take over the task of driving a vehicle: this has been repeatedly proven by the developers of unmanned vehicles.
In addition to direct participation in traffic control, smart cars are able to build the best route for a trip and inform the driver about any possible troubles and traffic jams in real-time.
Conclusion
Artificial intelligence is actively being introduced into the field of machine learning, allowing each specific car to be adapted to the characteristics and driving style of its owner. Perhaps in the future, technology will take into account the speed of a person’s reaction and adjust the behavior of a car on the road.
