Dyson has revealed more details on its electric car, having pulled the plug on the zero-emissions SUV late last year with claims it was just too expensive to be commercially viable. The prototype - shown in a mixture of mock-ups and renders - certainly is a departure from the vacuum cleaners and hair dryers we're familiar with from Dyson, though as with those products the company designed its own key hardware.
Dyson has revealed its latest product, the Corrale hair straightener, and as you'd expect from the company it's a new - and not exactly inexpensive - twist on a familiar beauty appliance. The Dyson Corrale uses flexing heat plates, which the company says can shape to gather the hair as well as use less heat than other flat irons.
Dyson has unveiled a new type of lamp called the Dyson Lightcycle Morph that features four formats and the ability to track the customer's local daylight hours. The lamp works with a related mobile app and is described as intelligent; among other things, it adjusts the light it emits based on various factors including the current daylight level and the user's age and mood. The model features Dyson's Heat Pipe tech and more.
Back in September 2017, Dyson surprised everyone by announcing its intention to enter the electric vehicle space. Things seemed to be moving along swimmingly on that front, with the company providing updates on the development of that car at various points, but unfortunately, today we've hit the end of the road. Dyson announced today that it has scrapped plans for its electric vehicle and the end to its automotive project overall.
Dyson's sculptural air purifiers are getting a new model, with the new Dyson Pure Cryptomic adding formaldehyde removal to their talents. Tucked inside the cylindrical body is a new catalyst panel, which Dyson says can take harmful formaldehyde and convert it into harmless water and carbon dioxide.
First announced in 2017, the Dyson electric vehicle range is just today revealed in imagery. As is always the case with patent imagery, the aesthetics you see today may not reflect the final product. However, given that Dyson himself shared the images with the media, we can be pretty sure they've got some connection with the shapes and movement of the car aimed at a 2021 release.
Critics of gasoline vehicles have been ramping up toward suggestions of an outright ban of gas-guzzling vehicles around the world for decades. For most, it didn't seem realistic until very recently. The idea that any government would be able to ban the use of a certain sort of fuel didn't seem possible when there was no realistic alternative, but with the rise of the electric car, a no-gas law might well be in the making.
While iRobot and its Roomba is the household name for robot vacuum cleaners, Dyson is the brand for fancy, hi-tech, and expensive home appliances, from cordless stick vacuum cleaners to bladeless fans to even "supersonic" hair dryers. The company has now come out with three new products to add to that list, at least two of which bear features that might be very familiar to those keeping tabs on the smartphone market.
Consumer Reports has pulled all Dyson stick vacuum models from its stick vacuums recommendation list over concerns about reliability, the company has announced. The decision was based on Consumer Reports' survey data, which it says revealed that Dyson's stick vacuums allegedly break at a higher rate than similar products from "any other brands" involved in the company's tests.
Dyson is a name that is associated with vacuum cleaners, bladeless fans, and now fancy hair styling devices. In the future, the Dyson name will also be associated with electric cars. Dyson has announced that it will build its new electric car in Singapore, and it is looking to break ground on the new factory later this year.
It isn't controversial to say that most of us associate Dyson with vacuums. Though vacuums make up the company's core business, Dyson has also branched out to hair care in recent years. Back in 2016, it launched its Supersonic hair dryer, and today it's following that up by introducing an intriguing new hair curler called the Airwave.
There's a new robot vacuum in town, and it's only the second Dyson's ever made. This is the Dyson 360 Heurist, and it can see in the dark. It's got LED-assisted vision and it's smarter than its predecessor by a significant margin. This robot can be monitored from its companion app - and it can be controlled by voice assistant, dependent on region.
