At CES 2026, I met up with the folks from Lucyd, a company that makes smart glasses without cameras, which helps with privacy, battery life and style.

Thanks to its sub-ton (1,973-lb) weight, single 270-hp motor spinning the rear wheels, and a 55-kWh battery, the Longbow was claimed to hit 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds with 275 miles of range.
