Favourite line:
Some luxury vehicles contain as many as 100 individual computers.
And:
It takes up to 100 million lines of software code to make this happen. To illustrate the complexity, consider that an F-35 Joint Strike Fighter operates on 1.7 million lines.
Neat photo, eh.
It’s a test of all the computers and software inside a Cadillac.
