BMW presented a level five autonomous driving car at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on Monday, a car that would allow its driver to completely take his or her mind off the road, enabling the driver to eat, watch a movie, or even sleep behind the wheel. However, the level five autonomous car still has a way to go before being realised. In the meantime, BMW expects to get level 3 autonomous vehicles called iNEXT on the road by 2021.

This Soviet-era Zil PEU-1B six-wheeled rover was commissioned during the height of the Cold War by the USSR to retrieve fallen satellites, space junk and even cosmonauts returning from orbit. The search and rescue vehicle has been lovingly restored to its former glory over three years on the territory of the old Zil factory in Moscow and is now roving through the countryside once more.
