Driverlessmania is in full-force, with companies like Hyundai and Google scurrying to release a self-driving car within the decade. NASA is also getting in on the fun, releasing a video this week of its "Modular Robotic Vehicle," or MRV for short.
Made by the space agency's Johnson Space Center, the electric battery-powered golf cart-sized MRV features a drive-by-wire system, meaning there isn't a mechanical link between braking, propulsion and steering.
The vehicle can be controlled both remotely and autonomously, and MRV's 180-degree rotating wheels allow for drifting through massive puddles and side-parallel parking like a champ.
While we don't expect to see the MRV drifting on Mars anytime soon, it could help engineers create new rides for important missions in the future.
Let us know what you think of NASA's new concept below in the comments section and follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
