with a PS5 game streaming feature? I mean, who needs that kind of tech in a car? It's just gonna be a fancy way to get people to spend more money than the $89k price tag already is! And let's be real, how many people are actually gonna want to play games on their car? Not me, that's for sure 
. I'd rather see them focus on making the thing safer and more efficient or something...
Like, who doesn't have enough cars already? And what's up with the $89k price tag?! Are people just going to be like "oh yeah, I'll just take out a second mortgage for this ride" 
? Not impressed by the Afeela concept so far, Tim Stevens was right on point with his PS4 comparison 
. But hey, who knows maybe it'll surprise us and actually be worth the hype... probably not tho 
. The $89,900 price tag might be steep for some, but if it means getting to play all my fave PS games on the go, I'm all in 
! Fingers crossed they'll make this tech available in production soon 
. Can't wait to see what other #CES2026 surprises Sony Honda Mobility has up their sleeve 
! The idea of a console-gaming hybrid car is insane - can you imagine driving around with your PS5 games playing on the go? 
. But for real though, how's the tech gonna work? Is it just streaming or can you play full-screen games on the go? Can't wait to see what Sony Honda Mobility has in store 
What's up with the $89,900 price tag tho? That's way out of my budget 
I'm literally so hyped about the new Afeela car!!! 
Stream PS4 & PS5 games on the go? Yes, please! 
My only concern is that they won't actually bring out production versions that can keep up with the hype... fingers crossed though 
. I hope they don't end up being just a fancy car for rich folks only 
. And companies like Sony Honda Mobility are taking steps in the right direction by investing in EV tech
