Found on web-zine Yanko Design was this mad doggy: the insane (-ly awesome) C.S.V. It stands for Cyborg Sensation Vehicle. Yes, really. Designed by Derek Chik Kin Ng, it'll be hitting dealerships in 2040 and targets "young adventurous professionals".
Inspiration came from Mercedes's F400 concept, which is also viewable in the gallery below. It foreshadows a fully integrated driver/vehicle interface, providing "driving...by thinking".
"There's a lot of F400 in there but the designer wanted to give the vehicle an organic flavor, hence the muscle fibers flanking each side, neatly tucking into a hidden skeletal system. The result is a design that takes Mercedes Benz DNA and evolves it into an organic object mimicking its pilot."
But does it teach Kung Fu?
