In 2008 I had the opportunity to visit Bologna motor show in Italy with my college friends. I saw so many different cars and concepts, but this one was just hard to forget. I quite liked it, but feel free to check it out and share with me your opinion about it.

I never saw anything so futuristic up close before, so I decided to show you the mentioned car.

Citroën revealed its new concept car, Hypnos. An elegant and distinctive cross-over vehicle, Hypnos explores new avenues in the design of luxury ecological vehicles. This innovative and particularly simple set-up is a perfect fit with the dynamic performance and traction while delivering impressively low fuel consumption and emissions.

The initial appeal of the exterior styling is transfered also in the cabin, with its original colors, makes the technology more human and approachable, like having color therapy in body-hugging seats. The concept car’s rear-hinged doors and color-splashed interior is drawing bypassers in and make them want to climb aboard.

As I read on the web, apparently a ceiling-mounted camera films the driver’s face and regularly measures anthropometric data. The system compares these measures with pre-recorded data to gauge the driver’s state of mind and adjusts the cabin lighting and scented air-freshener fragrance in consequence. Something different,right?
