New cars will get rid of their steering wheels

Cars that travel in self-autonomous mode have become more and more usual worldwide.

But even though today´s cars still provide the owner with the option to take control, that looks set to change soon.

Chevrolet has announced that they are working on a car completely without the traditional steering wheel.

According to website Hybridcars, the Chevrolet Cruise AV will be launched for sale next year, without either steering wheels or pedals.

21 sensors and 16 cameras will be placed around the car body, to make sure it stays on the road correctly.
