      My Tesla has driven me thousands of miles without even touching the wheel

    Alexander rode the same horse from Macedonia to Pakistan. Everything Alexander did, he did on that horse. If not for the horse, no Alexander.

    The Best Accessibility tech of CES 2026 would be nice!

    car batteries explode now? This is a new development indeed!

    Definitely interested in that Pioneer Sphera! Would be perfect for my ’07 Silverado with speaker upgrades of course 👍

    Sounds like a bunch of hype. Tesla has been working on Level 4 autonomy for a while, and now this company claims they can do it right out of the gate… sure, buddy

  11. @Maltbrew

    I don’t believe in that donut lab battery. It’s got to be a scam.

    • @mpk927

      January 9, 2026 at 3:41 pm

      10000% its a scam

    • @linusmlgtips2123

      January 9, 2026 at 4:27 pm

      It’s not if it’s releasing in a consumer grade motorcycle

    • @Maltbrew

      January 9, 2026 at 6:14 pm

      ​@linusmlgtips2123 That motorcycle company that has connections to Donut Lab? Yeah, it’s not like they can lie.

  12. @erikjohnson9931

    January 9, 2026 at 2:17 pm

    None of these cars will hit the market before 2030’s

  13. @Ch3ckman

    Old news. Bro it’s Friday

  14. @King_Cole

    The Donut lab was the biggest at CES by far if it’s real.

    Looks pretty legit too but we’ll find out for sure in a few weeks since they are “Being produced right now”.
