A special device had adding to this capsule as single touch screen that would control all vehicle functions and you also remain connected to the world with the internet-enabled satellite connectivity.
The single horizontal screen wiper is mounted on side rails which run along the A pillars, and also act as water channels. The powertrain adopts all-wheel drive system and electric motors.
This system includes GPS navigation, and connection with other Capsules. Side mirrors are replaced by external cameras which are connected to LCD displays inside the cabin.
