Honda Motor Co.’s latest Urban EV concept car features a large dashboard display that stretches across the passenger cabin.
Separate displays at each end show rearview images from exterior cameras that replace traditional side mirrors. A perpendicular wood panel underneath the main infotainment display houses some control buttons.
The design is toned down slightly from the interior of Honda’s 2017 Urban concept, which also included a display embedded in the driver’s door panel. Honda will publicly unveil the new concept, which the carmaker has described as a near-production prototype, at next month’s Geneva auto show.
The production model is expected to launch later this year.
