This is the LeEco LeSEE Pro self-driving electric car
During the presentation, LeEco Chairman Jia Yueting and the company's other executives said they weren't ready to unveil the car's cost, production schedule, or other pertinent details. All they would say was that the LeSEE Pro was "more intelligent and more connected" than the original LeSee concept car first unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show last April.
The car's steering wheel can retract into the dashboard when in autonomous mode, giving the driver more room to kick back and consume all of LeEco's streaming entertainment content.
The car features an exterior light display that shifts between five different colors to signal what drive mode its in. Depending on the color, the car will inform drivers and pedestrians when the vehicle is driving autonomously, sees a hazard, is charging, or is car-share ready, LeEco says.
In an interesting twist, LeEco is also bankrolling Faraday Future, the California-based electric car startup that has poached hundreds of auto industry staff in recent years and is currently building a $1 billion factory in Nevada. Yueting said that company's first production ready vehicle would be unveiled at CES next year.
