The Volvo 360c Concept Imagines Autonomous Business Class Travel
Volvo Cars' autonomous driving electric vehicle concept imagines the future of luxury automobiles as its own private abode on 4 wheels.
If you’ve ever flown a transcontinental flight in either business or first class, the appeal of a fully autonomous car ride outfitted with the connected comforts of a mobile office space is immediately evident. Instead of simply being a passenger, the Volvo Car?s 360c autonomous concept imagines driverless travel offering valuable time to enjoy the commute, work, and even sleep in the privacy and confines of a luxurious cabin on four wheels.
Volvo Car’s MÃ¥rten Levenstam describes the 360c as a “conversation starter” rather than a predestined design for the Swedish automobile manufacturer ? an exploration of possibilities autonomous technology may impart onto society and infrastructure. These changes are obviously directed at delivering a first-class private cabin experience in parallel to upper tier air travel, moving passengers door to door without the friction of public transportation or even private modes shared amongst passengers today.
From MÃ¥rten Levenstam, senior vice president of corporate strategy at Volvo Cars:
The 360c explores what becomes possible when we remove the human driver, using new freedoms in design and recapturing time ? it?s a glimpse at how autonomous drive technology will change the world as we know it. The possibilities are mind-boggling.
