At the AI Summit 2026 in Delhi, Tata Motors showcased an intelligent car equipped with biometric access, voice navigation, fog sensing, and driver fatigue detection that can automatically pull over to prevent accidents.
Tata Motors Unveils AI-Powered Safety Car at Delhi Tech Summit
New Delhi: The AI Summit 2026, held in the capital Delhi, showcased cutting-edge technologies that could completely transform road safety and smart mobility in the future. The new AI-powered car showcased at this summit is not only controlled by the driver's voice but can also prevent accidents by making its own decisions in case of danger.
Developed by automobile company Tata Motors, this technology requires the driver's biometric identification before starting the car. This means that no one other than an authorized person will be able to start the car. This is expected to effectively curb vehicle theft.

This smart car features an advanced voice command system. The driver will not need to turn the steering wheel -simply giving the command to go left, right, or straight will propel the car in that direction. This technology is considered particularly useful for the disabled and those traveling long distances.
An AI-enabled sensor system in the car will instantly provide information about the number of vehicles ahead and the safe distance during dense fog. This will help drivers make better decisions even in low visibility conditions and reduce the risk of road accidents.
Drowsiness while driving is a major cause of accidents. To address this problem, a facial expression monitoring system has been installed in the car. As soon as the AI detects signs of drowsiness or fatigue, it will issue an alert. If the driver does not respond, the car will automatically park in a safe place.
Experts believe that such AI technologies will reshape road safety in the future and form the basis of smart transportation systems. In the coming years, these features may also be found in common vehicles, potentially significantly reducing accidents.
