The Roewe 350 is the world's first Android-powered car
Hailed as the first Android-powered automobile in the world, this car has just hit the production line and is expected to make its formal debut next month at the Beijing Auto Show.
The 350, based on the N1 concept shown last year, is expected to integrated DVD / GPS navigation system and will run on Google's Android (v2.1) operating system. As you'd expect, the system will be able to pull down real-time traffic reports and figure out the most effective route from one point to the other, allowing you to avoid certain undersired spots.
The system also allows for direct web access from your car, and strangely, also allows you to chat online (which is something you really don’t want to be doing when you’re driving) although we suspect you'll need to rig up some sort of WWAN card.
The Roewe 350 boasts of a 1.5VVT engine with talks of a 1.5 Turbo engine also doing the rounds.
The price range varies from 10,300USD to 17,300USD
