The concept car has no conventional steering, nor conventional brakes, but is capable of driving normally. The technology will provide an extra safety backup on top of the traditional braking and steering devices.
As someone who works with state of the art industrial servo motors, there is no way in hell I would drive this on the streets. Conventional steering has a very safe failure mode. There is still a mechanical link to the driver that works without power.
Yes it will have redundancy. Likely 2 motors per side. But it’s those edge cases…
