Ford Evos concept

Ford's new Evos concept will make its global debut at the 2011 Frankfurt motor show, showcasing the manufacturer's new One Ford design direction as well as exploring future powertrain and vehicle technologies.

The four-door, four-seat fastback concept with a lithium-ion plug-in hybrid powertrain, is designed to engage the driver as much as possible through the use of infotainment and wireless technology. Although the car will never be seen on the roads, Ford has claimed that it contains many of the features that will be in use within future Ford production models.

The driver's preferences and driving habits will be combined with data such as work schedules and traffic and weather conditions, and could automatically play music from home as well as close the garage doors and switch off lights as the car leaves the vicinity.The technology can also anticipate weather conditions and adjust conditions in the car accordingly.
