AutoExec Summary
Maserati’s Chief Operating Officer Harald Wester criticizes hi-tech features in cars, stating that some are not as useful as they seem in brochures. He points out issues with active lane-keeping assist, active cruise control with stop-go, gesture control, night vision, and touchscreens, highlighting their limitations and potential dangers. With premium-brand technology making its way into more affordable cars, it’s important to be critical of cutting-edge features. Wester’s perspective provides insight into the drawbacks of advanced car technology, cautioning against putting too much trust in these features. This could have implications for Tesla’s plan to make their cars cheaper by incorporating similar technology.
