The 'Autolink Rapide S' Was Released at CES 2016

The car's instrument panel has also been replaced by a 12.2 inch screen, which features digital gauges and other instrumentation. Additionally, the vehicle boasts other Letv technology, such as remote vehicle monitoring, improved speech recognition capabilities and support from LeCloud.
