Aston Martin rips out the gauges, flaunts touchscreen-laden Autolink Rapide S at CES

When its vehicles are stylishly ferrying James Bond away from baddies on the big screen, it’s easy to forget that Aston Martin is a relatively small company. In terms of total employee numbers, the automaker from Gaydon, Warwickshire, England has roughly a third of the personnel that Ford has working at a single production facility, which means the manufacturer has a far smaller resource pool to draw from.

We’ve discussed Aston Martin’s partnership with Mercedes-AMG in the past — the German brand will supply Aston with engines for the next several years — and the company’s pairing with VC firm ChinaEquity on the RapideE concept has been well documented. At CES 2016, the automaker revealed the Autolink Rapide S, a new concept born from a collaboration between Aston and a firm dubbed “the Netflix of China.”

The Autolink Rapide S is an infotainment showcase featuring Chinese entertainment company Letv’s Internet of the Vehicle (IOV) system. The sports car’s center console has been ripped out in favor of a 13.3-inch HD touchscreen, and the instrument panel has been similarly replaced with a 12.2-inch screen that displays digital instrumentation and gauges. The IOV suite has also upgraded the Aston’s electronics by adding Letv’s latest speech-recognition technology and a remote monitoring system.

“After a few months of effort, we finished the integration of an Aston Martin vehicle and the Letv IOV system,” said Ding Lei, co-founder of Letv’s car division. “We have successfully equipped this supercar brand with over 100 years of history with an ‘Internet brain.’”

“Aston Martin is renowned for the beauty and quality of its hand-crafted cars,” explained Dr. Andrew Palmer, Aston Martin CEO. “The integration of Letv advanced connected technologies into this bespoke environment is a natural progression as we look to the future demands of our customers.”

Letv also happens to be the financial backer for the cutting edge Faraday Future FFZERO1, which was also revealed at CES 2016. Read more about the car and its slick modular platform here.

Kia EV4: everything we know so far
Kia EV4 Front

Kia is continuing to expand its electric car lineup. The EV6 and EV9 have both been out for some time now, and the company is in the middle of rolling out the EV3 in Europe, with a North American release expected next year. After that, it's likely the company will turn to the EV5. But what about after that? Well, that could be where the Kia EV4 comes in.

Kia announced a concept version of the EV4 at its EV Day in 2023, showing off a futuristic-looking hatchback that's seemingly a little smaller than the EV6, but keeps many design elements. Since then, Kia has confirmed very few details about it, though we have seen it shown off at other automotive events. Here's everything we know about the Kia EV4 so far.
Kia EV4 design
The Kia EV4, or at least the concept version of it, is smaller than the EV6, and much smaller than the EV9. It's actually closer in size to a sedan than anything else, though with its open trunk, it could be considered a hatchback. Regardless, it certainly blurs the line between the two. So much so, that in recent months we've actually seen a full hatchback version of the EV4 being tested -- and it's possible that Kia is pivoting the design of the EV4 entirely to be a hatch, or will be releasing both hatchback and sedan versions.
