Volkswagen makes office chairs with many technologies like cars: Can run at a speed of 20km / h, equipped with seat belts, horns, 360-degree cameras

Famous as one of the world’s leading car manufacturers, Volkswagen (Germany) recently suddenly developed a product that sounds like it has nothing to do with its main field: Office chairs. .
Typically, most office chairs labeled high-tech will incorporate features such as stain-resistant, waterproof, or are designed to a higher standard in terms of ergonomics.
However, the design team and engineers at Volkswagen say that the seats are still not really technological enough. Instead, they set out an ambition to develop a true high-tech office chair that allows users to…drive at speeds up to 20km/h. Worth mentioning, this is just one of many crazy features that Volkswagen has integrated into this one-of-a-kind office chair.
The office chair is considered to be unique ever from Volkswagen, with the same features as a car.
Reportedly, the main goal of this unique project was to put as many features found in a Volkswagen car into an office chair, and the team did a great job.
Accordingly, not only integrating an electric motor and control system on the seats, the Volkswagen engineering team even equipped seat belts, horns, speaker systems or even rim systems for the foot wheels. seats, just like in a car.

Not stopping there, this futuristic office chair is also installed with a 360-degree anti-collision sensor, a reversing camera, a touch screen, integrated headlights in the armrests, USB charging port. , LED lights, and genuine WW logo embroidered on the headrest.
The headlight is integrated on the arm of the chair, allowing the occupants to easily move at a speed of 20km/h in the office!
A question arises: What energy does this high-tech chair use to run. According to Volkswagen, the seats will come with a replaceable battery that provides range on a single charge.
However, before you decide to shell out for a seat, keep in mind that this is essentially a marketing project to highlight features that drivers sometimes take for granted. Even so, the German car group insists its high-tech office chair will be “available for test drives at various locations” in the near future.
