Mercedes-Benz has unveiled their Vision V concept, a top-of-the-line minivan EV that targets the executive transport market.
Envisioned as a "private lounge" on wheels, the cocoon-like interior is kitted out with Nappa leather seating, transparent storage compartments and no less than 42 Dolby Atmos surround-sound speakers.
The glass partition between the passenger cabin and driver's compartment can be rendered opaque—or just partially transparent--at the touch of a button, as can the windows.
There's also a gigantic 4K 65-inch screen that unfurls from the floor, allowing passengers to play games, watch movies, or view the vehicle's surroundings AR-style.
The seats can recline into a flat position.
Somewhat weirdly, there's an onboard chess set-up.
The driver's compartment isn't too shabby either.
The company says the production version will hew closely to the concept, and will roll out in 2026.

yeah, trump's tech bros are going to crack out the chess game on their way to the WWE finals with Burger King.
Using the term "gaudy" to describe this feels like using the term "unpleasant" to describe the sensation of burning alive. It's a disservice to mankind that people spent time designing and building this throne to waste
That's hideous
We can discuss a lot about it. But the biggest thing it miss IMO is hidden C-pillar and uniform side glass all the way to the back to open the view.
They've truly lost the plot, but then again, taste was never really in the equation at the Country Club.
