Watch this new autonomous BMW M235i drift itself


It’s one thing to have autonomous cars. That’s fine, having a computer steer you down a boring stretch of arrow-straight freeway while you read a book, text or watch a movie. But when the machines start encroaching on things that make driving fun, we appear to have arrived at a conundrum. Now that’s what makes the M235i that BMW brought to the Consumer Electronics Show recently so troubling – it’s a 2 Series that can drift itself.

Now this car will happily add a dab of oppo for you. The system uses GPS tech that wouldn’t be out of place in guided missiles, as well as advanced sonar to monitor its surroundings, according to a report by Autoweek.

Take a look the video of the autonomous M235i get its sideways on.
