Mercedes-Benz has always been known to provide people with luxury. Their vehicles are designed to be a relaxing experience as soon as you climb in behind the wheel, so that you can enjoy the drive ahead of you, no matter where the road may lead. The desire to give people more than a car has likely been a factor in their newest concept car which made its debut at the CES 2015 in Las Vegas. It is the awe inspiring Mercedes-Benz F 015 Luxury in Motion, a luxury sedan that could be available as early as 2030.

The Mercedes-Benz F 015 Luxury in Motion
The concept behind this vehicle of the future is simple: to provide luxury and relaxation unlike anything the world has ever seen before and to create a worry-free transportation option for everyone. It has every imaginable safety feature available at this time combined with an egg-shaped body that is over 17-feet long, 6.6-feet wide and 5-feet tall. The concept version has 26-inch wheels, aluminum high-strength steel body, and a carbon fiber reinforced plastic which makes it lighter by 40 percent.

The body is made even more unique by the fact it features LED lighting on the outside, and suicide doors that open up to what can only be described as a very spacious and high-tech lounge.

What Is Inside?
When you open the suicide doors to their full 90 degrees, you will first notice four rotating lounge chairs. These chairs are electrically powered so that they can swivel automatically to speak to the people who are riding with you or to work on your way to the office.

It has a dashboard that works as a cocoon complete with open-pore walnut wood veneers, metal, glass, and white Nappa leather. Six displays allow you to touch, gesture or simply look in order to control the amount of distractions you must deal with while enjoying the ride. These screens will tell passengers about nearby restaurants and allow them to enjoy gaming, be a part of a video conference or simply be entertained.

If the passengers don't want to be shielded from the view outside, there is also a projector that will show augmented reality. This projector is synced to the speed at which the F 015 is driving and shows beautiful landscapes of another more-relaxing world on the windows.

This self-driving vehicle will alert passengers of an upcoming turn or that the brakes will be applied soon. If you still prefer to drive yourself to the office, never fear, there is a white leather trimmed steering wheel for you to use as well as the traditional gas pedal and brake pedal.

The Safety of Self-Driving
There are LED lights all around the Mercedes-Benz F 015 concept car. These lights change color depending on what driving mode the vehicle is in. If the lights are white, it shows you are in charge of the vehicle. If they are blue, it shows others that the car is driving automatically.

On the rear of the car, an LED strip can tell drivers behind you that you are going to slow down. On the front of the vehicle they can project a virtual crosswalk and tell pedestrians that it is safe to cross the road in front of them as well as show others where the vehicle will be when it comes to a complete stop.

Availability
Self-driving vehicles is not a new concept. Rumor has it that within this decade there will be self-driving cars available to many people. This concept vehicle could be a reality one day in the near future. However, while there is no set release date, there may be test runs done in California soon to see how well the concept of the self-driving Mercedes-Benz F 015 Luxury in Motion sedan can function on busy streets.
