AutoExec Summary
Chinese electric vehicle start-up, Byton, has revealed its highly distracting M-Byte SUV interior, featuring a mammoth 48-inch display that runs the entire length of the dash. This display, along with smaller ones in the steering wheel and centre console, raises concerns about driver distraction and potential fines. The company sees the vehicle more as a smart device than a conventional car and plans to start production later this year, with global sales in mind. Technical details are limited, but the M-Byte is expected to have a range of about 400km and more than 520km. The company’s factory in China is nearing completion, and the vehicle has undergone winter testing.

Brands mentioned: Mercedes, Byton, Tesla
