BMW released a new video demonstrating its Connected Drive highly automated driving mode in action. They’ve been working on this for many years, and they seem to be very close now to the ideal concept, which is flicking a switch and leaving the car to do the job of driving. Couple of years ago they showed us a BMW 3-Series with such system. That could follow a path you’ve already driven with great accuracy. They are now testing it in a 5-Series in real world conditions.
Great, but last time we checked BMWs were all about the driving sensation. Making them autonomous kinda spoils the point of having a BMW in the first place.
