Just unveiled by Mercedes at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, the F 015 luxury in motion, a chic autonomous concept that looks like a large computer mouse.
The egg-shaped F 015 is all aerodynamics, with zelfmoorddeuren and a news ticker on the back in bright LED lighting obscene texts and emoticons on your achterliggers to fire. Or maybe some more mature signals if you are not so adolescent as the undersigned. The illuminated grille is an element that we recently, at the G-Code saw.
The interior we got at the end of last year, already served, for now this is everything that we are about the F 015 know. We suspect that Mercedes later today with additional information to come up. However, we do know that CEO Dieter Zetsche at the presentation company got a freaky huge eye on a tripod, here to see the pictures.
Incidentally, the F 015 also really driving, at 13:00 hours Dutch time is a ride on the Las Vegas Strip scheduled. A first video can be found on autojunk.
Update: the B-unseemly F 015 is a big boy: he measures 5.220 x 2.018 x 1.524 mm, and has a wheelbase of 3.610 mm, 245 mm longer than a Mercedes-Maybach S-Class. Like a real pimp befits rolls the concept that is constructed out of aluminum (C)FRP and exotic steels – on 26 inch wheels.
The rear wheels are powered by twin 136 hp and 200 Nm of strong E-Motors. The front is a battery pack and a 29 kWh fuel cell that im Vorderwagen sitzen. The F015 can be about 200 km of electric driving and approx. 900 km with electricity from the fuel cell. 0-100 comes in 6.7 s, and the Vmax is 200 km/h.
