Volkswagen has launched today a new microsite which presents their vision of automated transportation in the year 2028. For this presentation VW designers have specially developed three vehicle concepts named 'one' – for a single passenger, 'ego' – a sporty two seater, and 'room' – for the family. These concepts illustrates how vehicles of the future will be emissions free, used as living spaces, networked, accident free and customized at the touch of a button.

Upon entering the microsite, a short flash film begins. A father reminisces to his son while strolling through a park about a time when cars were run on petrol, had accidents and were stuck in traffic for hours. During their discussion they interact with holographic displays to communicate with their autonomous car to arrange a pickup point while showing a couple of other neat future technologies.

For more details about these concepts and their new technologies, please visit: www.volkswagen2028.com

Impressive modelling... I wish I knew how to model like that.

I buy into the future they're selling here, but I like driving, I don't like to be driven.

Should be very ECO by 2028 , Before all the 12 year old comments on how crap it looks , just think how far ahead VW are compared to othe companies.
