The 2021 BMW Vision iNEXT concept.Handout / BMW BMWs latest advertisement for its Vision iNext prototype a precursor, we’re told, to a near-future fully self-driving vehicle has for the first time shown off the SUV concept driving down the road with, apparently, nobody behind the wheel. Well, nobody sitting attentively in the drivers seat in an upright position, anyway.Yes, the German automakers finally gone ahead and made an actual commercial spot showing what appears to be people having sex in an autonomous vehicle.To get a little less vague, the video ad starts off with a couple getting close to each other, in what appears to be a bedroom.https://twitter.com/BMWi/status/1176149276931629056?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembedref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fd-15609724643529385794.ampproject.net%2F1909141409590%2Fframe.htmlRed and blue lights flash across their bodies, with the next sequence showing BMWs new flagship SUV driving down the street, and a police car with lights flashing driving past.The implication, here, is cruiser has no qualms with iNext zipping along with the couple inside was experiencing, uh, new moments of joy, in BMWs words.Were not sure if this is really the best tactic to drive home the point the Vision iNext offers a space where everything can be done with ease, and having a police officer drive by without noticing someone isnt behind the wheel certainly doesnt help the cause. On the other hand, sex sells, we guess.A few months ago there was a real account of people having sex in a Tesla while Autopilot was engaged. Elon Musk himself even Tweeted about it.While wed hoped Musk might have denounced the act, instead he thought it a good idea to make a joke about it. Funny, sure, but probably the dumbest thing he could have done. Considering autonomous vehicle technology is still very much in its teething stages, we probably shouldnt be jumping ahead to more adult autonomous content just

What do bags of chips, overpriced headphones and cars have in common? Theyre all available from vending machines, of course. Well, if you live in London, at least.AutoTrader UK has just set up shop at Spitalfields Market in a tony area of the city, stocking the countrys first car vending machine with a Renault Zoe. For those not in the loop, the Zoe is a compact electric car, and one of Renaults hottest tickets right now.Unlike your local dealer yknow, the kind where you generally need to negotiate the price of a new cars across the desk from a salesman aching to meet a quota this vending machine is strictly a no-haggle zone. AutoTrader set the Zoes price at 16,000 (approximately $26,000 Canadian).This compares very favourably against the cars reported actual sticker, some ten grand higher. Incentives are a wonderful things.As with most everything else in this life, shoppers can pay for their freshly vended Renault with their phone. It took about twelve weeks for six engineers to design and build the machine, which includes a custom key release function.Reports dont specify if the vending doors spring open automatically upon payment or if the purchaser gets to open them dramatically as if they are uncovering a Lamborghini barn find.Perhaps unsurprisingly, this marketing effort was spurred by a study that indicated about half of those surveyed disliked negotiating the price of a new car purchase.
