Sony’s latest Vision-S 02 concept car is a seven-seater 4.9-meter SUV in the style of the Vision-S 01 prototype introduced two years ago. Given its dimensions, such a model would be midway between the Tesla Model Y and the Model X.
The Sony Vision-S 02 has a conceptual status for the time being and has not yet been approved for series production. However, it has already become known that the new mobility division “Sony Mobility” will start the production of production cars already in the spring of this year. Sony has already created its own brand design, as the Vision-S 01 and Vision S-02 have a similar style.
The new Sony Vision-S 02 prototype is equipped with two electric motors, one on each of the wheel axles. Each develops 272 horsepower (200 kW), allowing the car to accelerate to 100 km / h in about five seconds and reach a maximum of 180 km / h.
According to preliminary information, the seven-seater “Sony” is developed on the same platform of the Austrian company “Magna Steyr”, which was also the basis of the four-seater “Vision-S 01”, which was presented in 2020. Both electric car models are equipped with an advanced autopilot system that uses a variety of sensors, radars and camcorders to navigate the environment.
Sony is currently positioning both the Vision-S 01 and Vision-S 02 concepts as a “technology showcase,” but that doesn’t rule out similar cars in series production.
