The wildest EV from CES 2025 is the underwater bulldozer that’ll be operational at 164 ft below

As if autonomous flying and on-road cars weren’t futuristic enough, CES 2025 has brought us an underwater bulldozer EV.

That’s not just word salad or an idea from a sci-fi movie – but soon to be an actual vehicular reality.

The best part? It operates on its own.

That means operators won’t need to hold their breath. Phew.

The underwater bulldozer EV

Unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2025, it’s the vision of 100-year-old heavy equipment manufacturer, Komatsu.

The all-electric underwater bulldozer EV features a 450kWh battery (expandable to 500kWh), and provides up to six hours of runtime.

What’s more, the amphibious bulldozer can currently dive to a depth of ‘just’ seven meters (around 23 feet) due to GPS limitations.

However, Komatsu plans to overcome that technical obstacle and increase its operational depth to 50 m (164 ft).

The bulldozer was created to work on construction, river dredging, coastal protection, and ecosystem restoration.

It’s likely that we will next see it being showcased at Expo 2025 in Osaka, marking a 50-year legacy of underwater equipment innovation for Komatsu.

Showcasing the latest tech from all over the world, as expected, automakers have used this opportunity to showcase their latest electric vehicles and cutting-edge technology.

Honda revealed prototypes of new 0 Series electric cars.

The Honda 0 Series SUV and Saloon cars are both self-driving prototypes, but a production version is expected in the near future.

The pair are excellent examples of Honda’s proprietary OS in action.

Next, there was a working solar electric vehicle by Aptera Motors that’s said to be ‘production ready’ and already has 50,000 reservations.

In terms of cabin tech, Dolby also revealed plans at CES 2025 to turn cars into mobile home theaters.

Transforming in-car entertainment, it proposed boosted visuals alongside its current surround-sound system.
