Franz Josef-Hicks, head of the Advanced Propulsion Research Institute and Laboratory at Kia Motors New Zealand, explained; ‘We have taken inspiration from current computer gaming technology to create a completely new steering and pedal system called Dynamic On-Road Kinetics.

Making steering motions with the small controller will turn the car in whichever direction the driver likes whilst accelerator and brakes are button operated.
