Tesla could soon make that a reality if a recent Twitter post from Elon Musk is anything to go by. The founder of the electric car company answered one Twitter user’s question of “Will we get KITT like AI [artificial intelligence] in @Tesla cars any time soon?” with a simple “Yes”. For those unfamiliar, KITT – an acronym for ‘Knight Industries Two Thousand’ – was the name of the very communicative Pontiac Firebird driven by David Hasselhoff’s character Michael Knight in the original Knight Rider TV series. The muscle car featured a distinctive strip of red lights on its front bumper and was able to talk to Hasselhoff and obey … [Read more...] about Elon Musk says Tesla cars to get KITT-like AI

BangShift Question Of The Day: What Was Your Dumbest Teenage Stunt, And Did You Get Away With It?
Sergeant Tracy Frost, a school resource officer, had noticed a hopped-up pickup truck with a high-school kid at the wheel last week. The driver noticed the cop, looked him dead-square in the eyes, and proceeded to light ’em up…the rear tires, boiling, in front of the school cop. That takes shiny brass ones…or overconfidence bolstered by a slight oversight. Once Frost had the kid pulled over and had proceeded to lay into him left, right and center, he learned why the kid had no trouble going full John Force right in front of the cruiser. Per the Boston Globe: The student, confident he did nothing wrong, told Frost, “You can’t do anything about it anymore,” Frost said, and then pulled out his smartphone to show the officer a news article that claimed Maine’s Supreme Court had ruled recently that burning rubber is “now protected free speech.” Oh, if only. What happened was that the student had read a satirical bit of writing that had a … [Read more...] about BangShift Question Of The Day: What Was Your Dumbest Teenage Stunt, And Did You Get Away With It?
Get a sunroof for new Swift, i20 or any other car at just Rs. 15,000 [Video]
Sunroofs have garnered a lot of popularity in India in the last few years. In terms of practicality, sunroofs are pretty pointless in a country like India, where temperatures remain extreme almost throughout the 12 months of the year. However, this hasn’t kept people away from aspiring to buy sunroof-equipped cars. That said, it’s worth mentioning here that not all mainstream cars on sale in the country offer a sunroof (no, not even as an optional extra on the top-end variants). Hence, one can always go for an aftermarket sunroof. Here’s a video that shows a popup-type sunroof that has been installed on the new 2018 Maruti Suzuki Swift. This is Webasto’s Hollandia 100 pop-up type unit, which is a manual-sunroof that can be operated using a lever. The price of this accessory is Rs 15,000 (including installation). Installing this sunroof requires cutting off a portion of the sheetmetal of the roof. It takes a few hours to install this accessory. … [Read more...] about Get a sunroof for new Swift, i20 or any other car at just Rs. 15,000 [Video]
