Volkswagen had shown the Sedric concept car in 2017, and judging from the pictures displayed at the time, the exterior design of the Sedric was extremely futuristic, and the rounded body maximised the space inside. Two sliding side doors open at wide angles, four seats are available in the car, and the passenger area is very spacious. Due to the use of driverless technology, there is no driving area inside the car.

A:A comment: In recent years, Volkswagen has maintained a high investment in pure electric vehicles and autonomous driving technology, and in order to seize the future taxi market, Volkswagen is very likely to put the Sedric concept car into mass production. The early launch of driverless taxis is of great significance to seize market opportunities, and in the era of vehicle electrification, driverless technology will become the core technology of car companies. It is expected that Volkswagen's driverless taxis will take the lead in the European market, and the future driverless taxis will become the main means of transportation for people, and the profession of taxi driver will gradually disappear.
