Chevrolet Silverado EV

When Ford made the F-150 electric, the world’s truck manufacturers took note. Now, more than a year on, the electric Chevy Silverado has arrived. Similar to the GMC Hummer EV, the Silverado EV utilises a bespoke electric vehicle platform and is able to go more than 400 miles on a single charge.

LG UltraGear 17G90Q

While not exactly new (LG released information on this one back in December), the LG UltraGear 17G90Q is worthy of note. The brand’s first-ever gaming laptop, the 17 inches release is wrapped in grey aluminium and is powered by an 11th-generation Intel Tiger Lake H CPU and an NVIDIA RTX 3080 Max-Q graphics card. Specs-wise, LG didn’t disappoint either, with the chip able to dish out detailed visuals to its 300Hz 1080p IPS display. The UltraGear 17G90Q also comes with 1TB storage and 32GB of RAM, and WiFi-6E support.

Cadillac InnerSpace Concept

Kicking off the Cadillac’s CES releases for this year was the awe-inspiring InnerSpace Concept. A two-seater, fully autonomous EV, the project “allows two passengers to focus on their journey and not driving”, but how so? From the low-slung roofline that raises to let you climb in to the enormous curved LED display that wraps across the entire front of the car, InnerSpace is more space shuttle than EV.

Dell XPS 13

Building on the pillars of modern stylish XPS models put forward previously, Dell unveiled the most powerful XPS 13 Plus yet.

The lower-cost version of the Galaxy S21 flagship comes with a few key trade-offs, most notably less RAM and a lower-resolution telephoto lens, however, it more than makes up for it in terms of price.
