Speed might be regulated by roadside devices, so no more glancing at the odometer. Instead, your car could be watching you according to William Chergosky, interior chief designer at Toyota R&D lab Calty Design Research, vehicles will likely be filled with sensors that track eye motion, body language, and who is in the car. “Although it feels very advanced right now,” he says, “technology integrated into cars is really at its infancy.” And if there are dashboards at all, they’ll probably be packed with sophisticated safety and entertainment technologies.

Visteon have collaborated with 3M Automotive to display the Growth Market concept car. The concept is based on a car already available in India, a 4-door Maruti Suzuki A-Star, also known as the Alto in some markets and between the Tata Nano and Honda Fit in size.
Though largely similar to the regular A-Star on the outside albeit with the addition of LED light clusters and protective film for the paintwork to cope with gravel and dust, the interior architecture has been changed significantly in response to consumer comments during the research.
