Exotic Cars and Technology: A Perfect Match - Henderson Edition

How Cars Cut Through Air

The shape of a car is important. Technology helps designers to produce shapes moving more easily in the air. Computers help people make the shape of a car with less wind resistance or more grip to the road. Some parts of the car (spoilers)  may move automatically to help manipulate airflow.

Supercars, such as the McLaren Senna and Bugatti Chiron – which reach top speeds of more than 250 miles per hour – use this smart shaping to stay stable at high velocity, but also to make them look like rippling muscles, sleek and menacing.

Inside the Car: Tech and Comfort

Tech has made exotic cars much different on the inside than they used to be. Now, they have sophisticated features making driving more enjoyable and easy. Big touchscreens, voice commands, and a simple way to connect to your smartphone. These systems can show you where to go, what to hear, and whom to stay in touch with.

Exotic cars include these front-line safety systems. Adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping-assist, emergency braking, and other devices make driving easier and safer. Drivers of these cars can have a little more fun and not worry so much about safety.

New Materials and How Cars Are Made

Another key for making a car exotic is using cutting edge materials. Modern supercars feature a huge array of materials which weren’t available in past decades. Carbon fiber is the go-to modern material. It’s extraordinarily light for how tough it is, which makes it really useful for these cars. It both helps them go faster and helps them handle better.

3D printing is another example of modern technology allowing quick and precise make of car parts, the variance of which enables more exclusive and individualized design and, consequently, makes the cars more unique.

Staying Connected

This type of connectivity enables today’s exotic automobiles to access the Internet of Things (IoT) for maintenance and performance monitoring.

Latest generation high-end exotics contain some of the most advanced systems displaying real-time data on speed, forces and lap times. The data is crucially important for those who want to drive on the edge of a track, or streak on the street.

Electric Cars and the Future

Electric cars are the future of exotic cars . Until this year, all the exotics I’ve bought have had gas engines, but electric engines are maturing quickly and are increasingly common. Electric cars such as Tesla can be fast and luxurious while using very little energy.

Even exotic carmakers are happy to try their hand at electric, moving beyond day-to-day drivers and into the realm of high performance. EVs such as the Rimac Nevera and Lotus Evija compete handily with their gas-powered counterparts, producing speeds and style rivals have to date labored to even approach, never mind match.

Battery performance is also improving, ranging and charging times are also, gradually, less of a problem. New batteries offering more power and improved rates of charging are over the horizon. Future supercars will doubtless be green and very fast indeed.

Smart Technology in Cars

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used in exotic cars nowadays . AI systems can make a car more experient and also can make in-car-entertainments soothing.Some cars have an AI driver-assist feature , helping the driver to drive better as well as it can make the car respond better.

Self-driving technology is a broad application of AI. Fully autonomous exotic cars aren’t here yet, but most cars going forward will have semi-autonomous features enabling auto drive on highways or self park.
