Nissan has unveiled a prototype electric all-wheel drive system at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show. The system is set to make its bow in a crossover vehicle in 2020, hitting the US market a year later. Real-world tests began in Japan earlier this year, and Nissan doesn’t expect commercialization until 2025 at the earliest, according to Automotive News. The system uses one electric motor to power each axle, increasing brake horsepower and pound-to-feet torque to 304 hp and 501 hp from 214 hp and 250 hp. Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk announced today that he will take another shot at becoming a billionaire by building his own rocket company. The carmaker is continuing to develop in-car avatars that will engage with passengers, it added.
