Renault EZ-Ultimo Concept

Like it or not, it seems that the future is now headed toward electric vehicles. Even automotive purists need to accept that we will eventually abandon fossil fuel in favor of batteries. You probably noticed that almost all of the carmakers have embraced the technology and teased a multitude of concept vehicles. Another aspect that the industry wants to promote is autonomous-driving vehicles. The Renault  EZ-ultimo concept gives us a glimpse of what’s on the horizon.

As tech companies continue to test their respective machine-learning systems, we can forward to a safer commute in the future. Sure there are some unfortunate mishaps that have happened along the way, but the data gathered should help the artificial intelligence learn from its mistakes. Just recently, Volvo was recently in the new with its Vera and 360c self-driving vehicles. Similar to the latter, Renault, plans to take the driver out of the equation to provide owners with extra time on their hands to relax, entertain, or get some work done during their daily commute.

Renault does not skimp out on the premium level of luxury included with the EZ-ultimo. The cabin oozes with style thanks to the wood, leather, marble, and other lavish materials that you would find in the first-class section. The driverless transport will rely on cutting-edge technology such as cameras, LiDAR, and other sensors to safely move its occupants from point to another.

Volvo 360c Concept Autonomous Electric Vehicle

The automotive industry is noticeably making an effort to dial back on our carbon footprint. Research shows that the continuous increase of vehicle emissions is not doing our planet any favors. Therefore, experts urge manufacturers to eventually adopt electricity as a renewable solution for the future. Tesla remains the undisputed pioneer of consumer electric vehicles. However, with the Volvo 360c for example, traditional carmakers are catching on to the trend.

While other labels focus on details such as speed, performance, and mileage, another European marque has its sights on a driverless future. The Volvo 360c concept is another step toward autonomous driving technology that might see implementation soon. Right from the start, you can observe that this car features an unconventional appearance. Moreover, the interior is surprisingly spacious. It even looks like a lavish cabin that you would find in one of those fancy trains.

Roughly the size of the company’s XC90 SUV, this ground-breaking concept a sleek and futuristic body adorned with LEDs and stylish glass panels. Owners can customize the interior depending on their needs. Multiple configurations can be ordered with corresponding functions: a mobile office, a living space, an entertainment room, and a sleeping module.

Volvo’s vision for the future is to increase our productivity since we no longer need to personally drive our cars to where we’re going. You now have more free time to do whatever you want on the 360c autonomous electric vehicle.
