Maserati Boomerang (1971) – The interior of this arrow-shaped sports car used a steering wheel that revolved around the instrument cluster located directly inside. However, it is really difficult for field users to observe the information while driving. Not to mention the position of the steering wheel, which is quite uncomfortable to hold when it’s perpendicular to the ground – Photo: Autocar
Nissan Comcom (1985) – In the 1980s, several Japanese automakers came up with the idea of building car cum mobile offices for the country’s employees, and Nissan was one of them. The concept ComCom he launched had everything such as a phone, floppy disk drive, GPS (although this was primitive technology at the time) and a receipt printer – photo: Autocar
Oldsmobile Incas (1986) – The interior of an American car model envisioned by Italdesign with a “steering wheel” couldn’t be more bizarre. While playing the game the user will steer the car through the 2 handles in front of him. At least, the massive display panel system behind the name has now become the “standard” of Car Village – Photo: Autocar
Mercedes-Benz F200 Imagination (1996) – In the 1990s, many believed that aviation technology would gradually appear on popular cars. Mercedes-Benz has prepared for this trend with the F200 Imagination Concept. Instead of driving with a steering wheel, users would use a joystick placed next to them. A display screen spanning the entire dashboard, a navigation system and an external camera instead of a rearview mirror are just a few of the many technologies seen on this concept that have now become common equipment in cars – Photo: Autocar
Toyota POD (2001) – A concept co-developed by Toyota and Sony, the POD opened the idea of a modern urban car at the time, with a smaller overall size but enough seats for 4 people in the cabin. Many artificial intelligence technologies on vehicles, such as the ability to recognize users’ faces or learn their favorite music on a POD, are now beginning to appear more widely in the market. Users driving the manual controls (located between the right screen and the door in the picture) have the ability to steer left and right – Photo: Autocar
Citroën Hypnos (2008) – The French concept’s colorful interior is not only for beauty but also to test the cabin design language later widely used by Citroën. The diesel powertrain later used in this model also served as the foundation for the compatriot Peugeot 3008 – Photo: Autocar
Kia Imagine (2019) – Looking at the interior of the Kia Imagine, one can hardly forget the dashboard. Here, the Kia is equipped with 21 different screens with high resolutions and different sizes, tilt angles and functions – Photo: Autocar
