When the lights of the LA Auto Show were lit up, automakers from all over the world stood beneath them to showcase their newest production models and concepts, all of which will come to shape the future of the auto industry. For Volvo, this was very much the case, as it showcased an exciting new concept car. Or most of a car, as it were. The Volvo concept, dubbed Concept 26, is an interior concept, and the offerings are built around delivering a luxurious experience within an autonomous vehicle.
Named the Concept 26, after the average American's commute time, this interior concept offers incredible luxury for drivers. Delivering a variety of levels of control, drivers can opt to take full control of the vehicle, or can set it to the Create or Relax modes, which transform the interior into a space for work or rest, while the autonomous control takes over the tasks of driving. While many automakers have committed resource to developing autonomous tech for their vehicles, none have offered such a detailed and luxurious vision for the future.
Though it is still a long ways off, the Concept 26 shows just how serious Volvo is about autonomous vehicle technology. Volvo's outstanding dedication to safety has earned limitless praise from all corners of the industry and the Concept 26 continues to show the commitment to the safety of everyone on the road, as well as the comfort of those within the vehicle.
Though only a concept, the Concept 26 shows a bright future for the vehicles of the Volvo lineup.
