Kenichiro Yoshida delivered a keynote speech at CES 2022, showing off the Vision-S sedan that was unveiled at CES last year. This year, Sony added another model: the Vision-S SUV prototype.

He said the company is exploring the process of commercializing Sony electric cars. "Last year, we were very excited about the presentation of Vision-S, which encouraged us to think further about how to use ideas and technology to change people's travel experience."

Kenichiro Yoshida said: "this is our new Vision-S SUV." The development of Vision-S is based on security, adaptability and entertainment. Safety has always been our top priority in creating a comfortable travel experience. This has not changed when the SUV was developed. A total of 40 sensors are installed inside and outside the car to monitor the safety of the vehicle. "

"in terms of adaptability, our connectivity allows us to build an evolving car," says Mr Yoshida. Through 5G technology, we can achieve high-speed, high-capacity and low-latency connection between the vehicle system and the cloud. VIsion-S also develops mobility into an entertainment space, including gaming experiences and audio. Through the exploration of VIsion-S and through the partners who support this initiative, we have learned more about travel technology. "

Sony also announced that it will set up a new company, Sony Travel, to accelerate the commercial debut of Sony electric vehicles. This implies that Sony electric cars may appear in front of the public in the near future.
