Is It A Spaceship? An Autobot? No! Its The Chevrolet FNR
Chevrolet has taken the automobile
designing two steps further by unveiling the insanely futuristic self-driving
concept car – The Chevrolet FNR at the Shanghai Motor Show. It is an autonomous
electric vehicle and has been designed at Chevrolet’s Pan Asia Technical
Automotive Center (PATAC).
The design of the car is
what grabs the eyeball. It seems too unreal and way ahead of its time.
Describing the design as stunning would be an understatement. The concept car
is made mostly of glass, with crystal headlights and tail lights and has dragonfly
swing doors.
Once you are inside, you
are greeted by a wall-to-wall, an entirely virtual dashboard, coming straight out
of a vehicle from a science fiction movie. The car uses an array of sensors and
comes with futuristic technology. To start the car, it will scan your eyes’
iris and only after it recognizes your eyes’ iris will you be able to start the
vehicle. The car’s roof mounted radars scan the surroundings and map them and
will then find out the best route to reach your destination.
The autonomous abilities
of the car match its styling as well. Once on the go, and the self-driving mode
is active, the front seats can swivel 180 degrees to make it comfortable to
have a conversation with the ones sitting at the back seat.
It can be safely said
that the self-driving cars of the future will certainly not be boring to look
at!
