Forget autopilot, the VW Sedric is a self-driving pod car with absolutely no pedals, a steering wheel, or even a cockpit for that matter. It’s designed for the fifth level of autonomous driving, which requires no human input at all. At the push of a button, the vehicle transports its passengers to their desired location using the most efficient route(s). Inside, there’s a large OLED display, complete with augmented reality technology.
Sedric is an all electric car, with its battery pack located flat between the axles, while a compact electric motor can be found within the wheels. The artificial intelligence system can be found in the compact overhangs at both the front as well as rear of the pod, and the rider can communicate with the vehicle via a push-button remote to indicate the time at which Sedric should arrive. The button can also change color and vibrates when the vehicle arrives. Once it recognizes its rider, the wide door slides open to allow them to jump in. The rider can then speaks with a voice assistant to discuss the travel time, directions, current traffic conditions, etc.
