You have probably heard of Afeela, a new electric vehicle Sony is working on in collaboration with car manufacturer Honda. After an initial reveal at CES last year, Sony once again brought Afeela to the event, and IGN had the chance to check it out and see what it looks like inside.

As previously confirmed by Sony, Afeela is capable of playing PlayStation 5 games. It's not, however, a vehicle that doubles as a PS5 console, but rather a vehicular car that also doubles as a PS remote play device (think PlayStation Portal).

Inside Afeela, you can see a Yoke-shaped steering wheel that makes it easy to see the rather large display. This display can do more than just Remote Play video games, of course. You can use it to play music and other typical things found in a smart vehicle, like navigation.

Another interesting tidbit is that, near the front of the car, there is a little display that Sony is calling a "Media Bar." In simple terms, that basically means it displays media images. You could, for example, use it to display logos for a video game. However, I could see this used by rideshare drivers when trying to find their passengers.

Afeela is one of many cool things shown off at CES this year. For more of what was shown off at CES this year, check out our Coolest Gadgets roundup. And for all the biggest news coming out of CES 2024, check our Everything Announced article.
