People have been re-creating Santa sleighs since the legend of Santa was born: I mean, since the first time a person saw him land on a roof. Now GE is taking a stab at giving Santa's sleigh a stylish new look.
Featuring jingle bells and whistles such as “icephobic coatings to prevent ice buildup, self-powered OLED lighting for illumination at 30,000 feet, sodium batteries to store supplemental power for the sleigh and a wireless medical sensor,†this winter wonder is more fit for a soldier than a saint.
