Concept car touches feature strongly; it has a joystick instead of a steering wheel.

"It’s a new and highly emotional web-based car that interweaves individual and public transport in an intelligent way," said Rinspeed boss Frank Rinderknecht.

Rinspeed says the car has been designed with production in mind and that it is in talks with manufacturers to turn its creation into a reality.
