BMW iX Self-Driving Testing Car - 100 km/h with no driver!

In this video, we take a look at the BMW iX Driverless Testing Car, or simply, a BMW iX self-driving model. The special self-driving BMW is used internally by BMW testing engineers to automate some of the simulations and testing scenarios performed by humans.

It is based on the BMW iX electric car, but it's equipped with wide range of technology: from GPS units to 5G connections, sensors, emergency braking systems and a full-blown computer placed in the trunk.

To showcase the tech, a BMW engineer sat in the back seat with me as we go around a race track in Germany performing a series of maneuvers, slaloms and braking procedures.

Let's take a look!

Watch driverless yard trucks at work at new BMW logistics center in South Carolina. That was posted on 10/3/22.

This is cool, cos I want a car in my garage and do NOT feel like driving! This BMW X self driving SUV would be perfect for my little, growing family! Move over old drive cars-- I'm a parent that wants a auto pilot family car. 💯

When it just uses GPS it's nothing special

Embarassing. This has nothing to do with Autonomous Driving. This is lightyears behind Tesla.

In 2024 Tesla is still way ahead in reality on the road.

A lot of the European car manufacturers are developing higher levels of autopilot but they are still in development as of today in 2024. Tesla is still way ahead.

Hilarious! "Drivers car" motto will have to change. Then, bmw stopped being a drivers car many years ago. Which is why I will never update my E39. New cars are in fact garbage.
