A look at Hyundai's Holographic Windshield Display. (Hyundai) While it often feels like a full-on auto show, the car vibes feel somewhat lessened at CES 2026.

The Bluetooth trackers are priced pretty reasonably even when not on sale, but they can be a steal if you can get them on a discount — like right now.
