Toyota's Concept-i is a vehicle designed to learn about its driver
Toyota revealed the Concept-i at CES on Wednesday, a new concept vehicle that the company built with its Newport Beach CALTY design research group, with tech supplied by the carmaker's SF-based innovation hub. I spoke to CALTY Project Design Manager William Chergosky about the process of creating Concept-i, which he said was about finding a way to bring the excitement people feel about driving now to a potential future in which autonomous driving is much more prevalent. "We've been working on this for approximately two years, and we're trying to create a futuristic vision for the 2030 automobile that's really fun to drive," Chergosky explained. We had a real fundamental belief in this idea of'waku-doki' – getting your heart racing. Is that something that dies with this future?
