The car is engineered to maneuver itself, however it also allows the driver the option to steer if you so wish. This [luxury sedan](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2027-mercedesbenz-sclass) offers 20 possible seat placements, along with swivel options; you can recline into comfort while catching a film on one of four hi-def screens. The impressive interior resembles more of a living room than a car, and it also offers a plethora of safety features, like programs linking to data sources with warning messages or route recommendations. This car gives passengers a place to hang out while still being on the move. Commuting to and from work will be less tedious and maybe even a little more enjoyable, with all these futuristic features. Buckle up, this car is set to debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 98% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Driveless Cars:** The Rinspeed XchangE concept car is showcasing the potential for driveless cars in the luxury sedan market. - **Connected Car Experience:** The Rinspeed XchangE offers a connected car experience with 20 possible seat placements and a variety of safety features. - **Transformative Interiors:** The interior of the Rinspeed XchangE is redefining the idea of a car, with its living room-like design and multiple hi-def screens. ### Where This Applies - **Automotive Industry:** The automotive industry should take note of the potential for driveless luxury sedans and adapt to the evolving market. - **Technology Industry:** The connected car experience offered by the Rinspeed XchangE opens up new possibilities for technology integration in vehicles. - **Entertainment Industry:** The transformative interiors of the Rinspeed XchangE provide an opportunity for the entertainment industry to create innovative in-car entertainment experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Streamlined Two-Seater Electric Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-electric-car-concept.md) - [Oversized Well-Appointed Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-urbansphere-concept.md) - [Lounge-Like Autonomous Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-concept-vehicle.md) - [Shareable Autonomous Vehicle Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tesla-cybercab.md) - [Fully Autonomous Crossover SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dkm-20.md) - [Luxury Electric Van Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mercedes-vision-v.md) - [Luxury Self-Driving Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drive-pilot.md) - [Capaciously Compact Robotaxis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-taxis.md) - [Autonomous Vehicle Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tensor-robocar.md)
