The North American International Auto Show kicked off in Detroit.
It was originally supposed to be held in January, but the event was delayed due to the aftermath of Big One. The topic of the recent motor show is future cars represented by autonomous vehicles and electric vehicles.
Not only automobile companies, but also IT companies and startups participated and introduced various new technologies such as electric vehicles, self-driving cars, and cars made with 3D printers.
Several hydrogen cars had appeared before that, but this time they have completely disappeared. BMW, Benz, Toyota, and Nissan, which took a step forward in the development of hydrogen cars along with Eunsung Motors, all came out with electric vehicles instead of hydrogen cars.
No matter what happens in the future, it is because hydrogen cars cannot keep up with the advancement of electric vehicle technology for now.
Several companies have unveiled their new cars, but the one that drew the most attention is the carros.
At this motor show, Karos unveiled its first new electric car. The AD3 in the form of a sports sedan, and the AD4 in the city SUV.
Both are futuristic designs with aerodynamics in mind. People couldn’t help but admire the completely different design from before.
The reason why the design suddenly changed compared to the normal and easy AD1 and AD2 is because a new car designer joined.
Cesar Lenchester, who oversaw Audi’s design and made numerous hits, moved to Carlos, saying he wanted to do something challenging and fun.
“New wine must be put in new bottles. AD3 and AD4 are not the cars that follow the legacy of Chrysler, but are completely new cars that will change the paradigm of automobiles. As such, we need to present a completely different design than before.”
Inevitably, existing car companies have to carry on their traditions and identities, so there are inevitably limitations in design. But Carlos was able to free himself from such restrictions.
The result is an entirely new design. The most characteristic part of the exterior is the disappearance of the side mirrors. Instead, cameras and displays have been replaced.
The design alone was enough to attract attention, but surprisingly, it has a range of over 1,000 kilometers. In addition, even though the battery capacity has increased, it also introduced a fast charging technology that can charge about 40 percent in 15 minutes and 80 percent in 30 minutes.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is enough to compensate for the shortcomings of electric vehicles.
Of course, it is equipped with more advanced autonomous driving technology using data accumulated from AD1 and AD2 driving.
Carlos COO Ryan said at the presentation.
“Everything is ready. Karos will go beyond autonomous driving and usher in the era of completely driverless vehicles. The future is now.”
The release of AD3 and AD4 was a huge topic of discussion. However, it was the ADX, a concept car, that received more attention.
The ADX is a five-seater pickup truck, and it is not small, but full-size.
Pickup trucks are like a soul car for Americans, ranking as the best selling car in the United States every year.
Although it is a market with huge potential, the reason electric vehicles have not been introduced is because of their mileage. In particular, full-size pickup trucks are like hippos that eat oil because of their size and weight.
It is difficult to drive 200 km without using existing batteries. However, the ADX equipped with OTK battery was able to travel up to 500 km.
Ryan said that the ADX is a concept car and there is no official release date, but public and media interest was explosive.
– A full-size, four-wheel drive electric pickup truck!
– Design is boring.
-If you drive 300 miles, you can run long distances.
– That’s enough to eat in the city center.
– When it is released, I will definitely buy it!
– A real man is a full-size pickup truck!
The reaction was so hot that the motor show article was covered with all talk about Karos.
[Karos electric car release, will the auto industry change?]-The main character of this North American Motor Show is Karos, no matter what anyone says. There was no room for other cars in the three new cars they brought.
When other companies look to mass-produce autonomous vehicles, Karos has declared that it will usher in an era of driverless cars. (syncopation)
The value of the Karos is already higher than that of Toyota, GM, Nikola, and Ford combined. In addition, Faceit entered the car infotainment market by utilizing its know-how accumulated in the porn industry, and M Pizza is already actively introducing Karos’ autonomous driving technology for delivery.
In the next year or two, it will become natural for driverless cars to drive on the road, and driving will remain a hobby for some.
Carlos is at the forefront of all these changes.
Until now, the car king was Henry Ford. However, in the 21st century, it may be necessary to hand over the throne to Kang Jin-hoo.

The North American International Motor Show ended successfully, and various articles poured in.
I was playing a game with Taek-gyu on my way to work, and senior Ki-hong rushed up to the CEO’s office.
“Okay, something has happened, sir.”
I stopped the game.
“What’s going on?”
“No, don’t be surprised and listen.”
“I won’t be surprised, tell me.”
He seems to have been shocked by what he heard.
“Did the Fed even raise rates by 100 basis points last night? Or, did the exchange rate break through the 2,000 won mark, or did the oil price rise above $200 per barrel?”
“It is not.”
“Then what?”
Senior Ki Hong said in a loud voice.
“The president has been selected as a strong candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize!”
There was silence for a moment, and Taek-gyu and I looked at each other’s faces.
“what? Was it?”
“What a big deal, it’s no big deal.”
Senior Ki Hong had a bewildered expression on his face.
“Oh, no, isn’t it surprising? It’s a Nobel Prize nominee. A Nobel Prize, not any other award.”
The Nobel Prize, as we all know, is awarded by the foundation established by Alfred Nobel, who developed dynamite, and is the most famous and credible award in the world.
“I’m not alone, am I a co-candidate?”
“That’s right.”
I accepted the tablet that senior Ki Hong had offered me.
I, President Ronald Stamper, and Professor Kiran Mohan were selected as co-candidates. The reason is, of course, that by preparing for Big One in advance, millions of lives have been saved.
Taek-gyu patted my shoulder and said.
“Isn’t it most likely that he will receive this year anyway?”
Senior Ki Hong quickly bowed his back.
“Congratulations, President. The staff will support you with one heart.”
Actually, I expected it, but it didn’t really come true. I am the Nobel Prize I don’t think I won a few awards when I was in school.
“Aren’t you going to give me a prize?”
“It won’t be long.”
I looked it up, it’s over 1 billion.
“Are you giving this per person or should it be divided by a third?”
“I can do rock-paper-scissors and drive it to one person.”
“… … .”
It’s genius.
I got a call from the White House. Ronald burst out laughing at what was so good.
[Hahaha! It’s a Nobel Peace Prize. At that time, what you said to me as a joke became a reality.]“Yes?”
did i say that
[Didn’t you persuade me to prepare for the Big One and say that I’ll win the Nobel Peace Prize later?]“Oh, yes. It was.”
It was so urgent that he seemed to have said everything.
It is still only a nomination, but the award has not been confirmed. But Ronald is drinking cold kimchi soup.
“Shouldn’t we wait until the winners are announced?”
[haha! What does the award matter? If you don’t give it, you don’t get it. I don’t have any greed at all. Ahaha!]“… … .”
I like it so much for that. If they don’t give it to them, there is an atmosphere of trade retaliation against Norway.
Already, Norway has a history of being beaten by China once for giving Liu Xiaobo the Nobel Peace Prize. If even the United States does that, won’t they be beaten for not holding an awards ceremony in the future?
Anyway, there are no competitors this year, so we have the highest chance of winning. Once I’ve been nominated, I’ll give it to you whenever possible.
Korea has fewer Nobel Prize winners compared to its economic size. So far, it has been awarded only once. Former President Kim Dae-jung was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
When news broke that a Korean could be awarded another Nobel Peace Prize, people were in a welcoming mood.
-Five! Will there be a second Korean Nobel Prize winner?
-envy. A lot of money, a Nobel Prize. What can the guy who is to do?
– I worked so hard to save people, but it’s not right to give.
-By the way, shouldn’t Jinhoo Kang receive the Economics Prize rather than the Peace Prize?
-If you’re going to give me a Nobel Prize in Economics for making a lot of money, Warren Boat should get it first.
– The Nobel Prize in Economics is not strictly a Nobel Prize. The recipient of the award is not the Nobel Foundation, but the Swedish Central Bank.
– By the way, it’s a peace prize again. The neighboring country, Japan, does well in science and literature, but is there anything that Korea can receive other than the Peace Prize?
– It’s good to get anything.
However, not everyone welcomed the news. There were people who hated me as much as there were likes and dislikes for me.
It was immediately raised by conservative groups.
-Kang Jin-hoo, a red-haired gangster, is the Nobel Prize winner!
-Are you rewarding him for what he’s done?
– This is nonsense. It must be stopped!
– How dare you dare to put a spoon on President Ronald’s achievements!
-What kind of prize is the speculator who only reveals money, he can’t make money?
-Let’s unite our patriotic conservatives!
– Let’s take this opportunity to abolish the Nobel Prize altogether!
-President Park Si-hyung, I love you!(Read more @ wuxiax.com)
Conservative groups said they would gather in front of Daehanmun Gate on the weekend to protest the release of President Park Si-hyeong and protest against the Nobel Prize after Kang Jin-hu.
For this purpose, a grand name of the ‘National Action Committee to Stop Kang Jin-hoo from winning the Nobel Prize’ was created.
The group agreed to send a letter a day to the Nobel Committee while receiving signatures. We handed out stationery and envelopes to members, and raised money to cover international postage expenses.
Some lawmakers from the Liberal People’s Party also jumped on board and raised their voices, saying, “Jin-hoo Kang should not receive the Nobel Prize, and even if he does, he should return it.”
Rep. Lee Jeong-hye said in a strong tone.
She said, “It was all thanks to President Ronald’s decision that prevented the Big One disaster. It is absurd that Koreans are jointly awarded the prize for the disaster that happened in the United States. This not only goes against international equity, but also threatens to undermine the ROK-US alliance. We need to make a statement against it at the National Assembly level!”
The public reaction was absurd.
-I’m a conservative too, but who the hell chose these bastards?
-Sorry. As a resident of the constituency, I apologize on behalf of you. I’m embarrassed and sold out, so I’m moving right away.
– I searched for a constituency and found it to be our neighborhood ㅜㅜ Oh! ㅆw Don’t go out and vote that day.
– Other countries are outraged because they can’t receive the Nobel Prize, but even if they give it, the Korean class is outrageous.
-It is said that letters are pouring out like bombs to the Nobel Committee not to give the Nobel Peace Prize to Kang Jin-hoo.
-By the way, what are you thinking about sending it in Korean? can they read it? Do you have a head or not?
– Just like Liu Xiaobo, let Kang Jin-hu be enslaved. So I can’t get it?
-Who is the bastard who wrote to the UN to abolish the Nobel Prize Why are you sending it to the UN?
– Leave it alone. Do you want to disgrace the country?
Taek-gyu said while looking at the articles and comments coming up.
“Suddenly, I remember that your Excellency worked to cancel former President Kim Dae-jung’s Nobel Peace Prize.”
“… … .”
In the process of uncovering Park Si-hyung’s corruption, the allegation that he had been involved in the cancellation of the Nobel Prize turned out to be true. Even conservative groups and the National Intelligence Service were mobilized here.
No matter how different their political stances are, would it make sense to mobilize even state agencies to ask for the Nobel Prizes that have already been won to be canceled?
At the time, the jury members of the Nobel Committee were astonished that he had seen a country lobbying for a Nobel Prize, but had never seen a country lobbying for the Nobel Prize to be revoked.
“Even so, I did everything I could in tears to win the Nobel Peace Prize.”
Of course, what would the Nobel Foundation award a prize for? And awards that have already been given cannot be cancelled.
In the end, it was just a foolish thing to do with the public tax.
Professor Mohan was calm, refusing to interview the press, but Ronald was completely excited. Everywhere he went, his supporters shouted ‘Nobel’, and the media cameras caught him smiling each time.
Another good news flew in.
“Professor Homin Kim has been nominated for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry!”
