IAB Report - Qoros Qloud Qubed concept revealed ahead of its LA debut [Video]

The manufacturer says that the concept is a "multidimensional personal management system", and that it forms a relationship with the driver based on "trust". The Qubed concept, also called 'Q', learns five senses from the driver over a period of time: smell, taste, sight, touch and sound.
The concept will understand the user's tastes such as favorite restaurants, music choice, frequently visited places, friends and family during the ownership period. It can also detect when the driver is "acting irresponsibly" and switch to an automated driving mode.
Qoros says the exterior of the Q is tall and narrow to suit congested streets, while the capacious interior allows the front seats to face rearward when the car is in its automated mode.
