With cars becoming increasingly automated, it's interesting to occasionally jump the gun and imagine what luxury automated cars will look like in the future -- that's what prompted the unveiling of the Italdesign Giugaro GEA at the Geneva Motor Show. This vehicle aims to imagine what automated automobile luxury will look like in the future.
The Italdesign Giugiaro GEA is essentially a luxury saloon with four electric motors. It offers an output of 570 Kilo watts of power and is capable of hitting a top speed of 150 km/h. It is described as "a study on the luxury car for the near future."
The use of the term "near future" suggests that this concept isn't outrageously ambitious beyond reason, so don't be surprised if you see one of these on your local streets a few years from now.
