Nissan Motor Co. said it has developed a new type of paint that significantly reduces the temperature inside vehicles parked in direct sunlight.

The surface of a car coated with the innovative material remains up to 12 degrees cooler than that of a vehicle with standard paint, tests showed.

The company said the coating material can help rein in the temperature rise not only on the car’s body but also in the vehicle when exposed to direct sunlight.

      Their privacy policy includes a provision that they can use the cameras and GPS to infer things such as sexual orientation, so yeah.

          I don’t think they have interior cameras (although other manufacturers do), but the front and backup camera feeds provide plenty of information as well.

          Then there’s also this, if you need any more reason to be concerned.

            Can just stop there. Unless people are banging on the bonnet, not sure what the point is.
