When I First Looked At This Car,

I thought it was a Tessler, it sort of reminded me of the Tessler truck, 

photographs Lotus, but I was so wrong, it is a Lotus and the company has revealed the Theory 1, is a tech-heavy concept car with saluting doors and "soft robotic" seats, from the website Ben Payne, Vice President of Design, Lotus Group said: 

“With Theory 1, we’ve built on everything Lotus has achieved so far in its 76-year history, to push the boundaries for what it means to drive a performance vehicle. We want to demonstrate that you don’t need to compromise – with both digital and analogue capabilities working harmoniously in the future car. In doing this, we are able to bring drivers the best possible immersive driving experience with raw emotion, functionality and connectivity, at the core.”

Lotus has developed its own proprietary driver system called LOTUSWEAR™, which is an immersive system that aims to deliver a personalised experience to every occupant in the car, designed to evoke a sense of raw emotion and pure excitement – and further connect them to the road,

this car appears to have everything a discerning motorist could wish for, to ensure every occupant can enjoy a truly immersive and unique audio experience, part of the headrest is a binaural audio system, which has been designed in collaboration with KEF. It offers individual bespoke soundscapes for each of the occupants, that are further enhanced by the subwoofer speaker located behind the driver seat. Occupants in the car can:  

• Enhance ‘speed’ sounds to deliver a sense of thrill, exhilaration, and fun.   

• Benefit from noise cancelling abilities to improve concentration and enhance the listening experience.   

• Level-up entertainment by providing an impeccable and immersive sound to further elevate the audio experience.
