It's interesting to think on what the interior of self-driving car might look like, but I am not very impressed by this one. Panels on the doors? That's ridiculously awkward. Also, glossy floors and seats that look like they are floating are dumb whether or not the car drives itself.

You know what would be revolutionary? A Persian rug, sitting pillows, a hookah, stained-glass lampshades, a mini-fridge, and a VR headset for each passenger. If I have an hour commute, I don't want to feel like I am trapped inside an iPod.
