“Hi Jacques, to Berlin please, Olympia Hall.” Ineke closes her car door – and the loud business – world out. Soundproofed. Lounge interior. Entertainment Plus package. “Good decision,” she thinks while putting her feet up.
She leans on the armrest, her biometric data is synchronized with the board system. The lights are dimmed. The flow of messages on the 360-degree screen disappears, the display changes to a dune landscape of the Baltic Sea. Fresh sea air starts to fill the space. A little moment of happiness. With every second in her car, Ineke leaves her everyday business life behind and her pulse approaches its rest rate. The sound of waves lulls her to sleep.
“Ineke, you have reached your optimal period of sleep of one hour and thirty minutes.” Jacques wakes his passenger as gently as possible. He opens the screens for a look outside. “The remaining time to destination is three hours. Do you want to switch to business mode or to entertainment? With the Plus package, our personal trainer is available as well.”
“Would you really exercise in your car?” The question tears Ineke from her dream world. Her fully autonomous car with the sexy voice of “Jacques” turns into a wooden vehicle skeleton the size of an Audi A3. The model is placed in the center of a creative working space, the creative minds themselves gather around on sofas and armchairs. The group are fine-tuning their personal love stores – their favorite moments in a piloted Audi, 15 years from now on.
