Dominating the forward cockpit is the OpenR Panorama screen that is 44.5 inches wide, 4.33 inches tall

The system integrates Google's Gemini artificial intelligence to manage everything

Literally why? I was just getting interested too 🤢

    Looks great. Let's hope it's not a million dollars like the ID.Buzz.

    The number of people who feel that $60,000 is an appropriate amount for a soccer parent car is too fucking high.

    it makes no sense. Young families don't have $60,000 to throw around, so it's either a van or junior's college fund.

    But, the idea that you need a massive van after having an 8lb baby is pretty stupid.

    They have the money if they take out massive PCP loans that leave them with fuck all.

    I know people, mostly in their 20s, with larger PCP loan payments than my mortgage.

    In a few years they get a new car and the loan probably gets a bit bigger because the salesman talks them into being able to afford another £100/month by now.

    I'm pretty sure they're the opposite of stoned, and even more confident that correcting that would do them a world of good. For one, they'd make better choices in vehicles than this bullshit.

    Oh. You meant that as an example of working class life. Sorry, I'm happily baked. 😄

    Any shots of the interior? If it's meant to be a family car, I'd love to see the details that make it easier to clean up after small children. A flat floor (mentioned in article) is a nice start.

    I saw the original and thought it was a throwback dsign but the new one is ok. The dash is awful shit. Fuck AI implementation.

    The less SUVs, the better.

    I saw it IRL. It looks interesting but it’s still an early concept some people told me

    Wait. Am I wrong in my impression that's what the brand is known for? Sheisty, obstinate, unreliable small cars? If not, this is an astroturfing puff piece.

    Well they mostly have crossovers these days, like everyone else. No big SUVs, but then that could be said of most European marques other than the Germans, Volvo and Land Rover. Even the current Espace is a crossover rather than an MPV like the first 5 generations
