>Non golf-cart LSVs are not a new concept. GEM has been making them for years. Moke has taken a crack at it with retro-inspired open-air buggies. But none of those offer Chip’s standout promise: a remote-driving feature called Chip Go!

It means you can drive to to the beach, unload, then dispatch the car to go park in some far-away lot.

He makes it a point to note that Chip is liable for anything that happens in the vehicle when the teleoperator is in control.
