Italdesign Giugiaro have shown fully autonomous luxury sedan by way of the GEA concept. The GEA concept car is a luxury saloon car with four electric motors, one at each wheel, and it can provide 57 kW of power and a top speed of 155mph. The designer says that the concept is a study on luxury cars for the near future and the company behind the design believe that the focus is going to move away from drivers to the passengers in the seating in the back.
The Dream Mode aims to offer a place of relaxation and sleeping when going on long journeys. The windows are darkened and the whole cabin is lit in relaxing blue light. There are footrests that can be extended from the seating in the back, while the seat at the right hand side of the car is able to extend into a bed. The whole aim of this mode is to reproduce the feeling of flying in first class.
The GEA concept is a sleek looking saloon car with a flattened look to the front and back ends. The wheels are classy and come in 23 inches offering 60 gleaming spokes each. The chassis of the vehicle is designed in aluminium, magnesium and carbon fibre and these materials help to keep down the weight to 2,000kg. At the back the doors open towards the back to make getting in and out easier much like the Pantom and the centre pillar has been removed.
