This is the glass-floor car from the future.
It’s one of the most bizarre yet most beautiful concept cars ever created.
Called the DS X E-TENSE, it’s completely asymmetrical.

One side is created with the love of driving in mind.
You open the butterfly door to find a minimalistic design with a cockpit, steering wheel and simple dashboard.

On this side of the car, you can drive with the wind in your hair and 1360 hp at your fingertips.
The other side is designed for optimal comfort.
When you open the massive gullwing door, (yep both doors are different) you are welcomed into a cocoon-like capsule seat.

The main passenger seat floats on top of a glass floor, so you can see the road pass underneath you.
The seat comes with massaging functions and can be stretched back for ultimate comfort.
This side of the car even has its very own coffee machine, because why not.
DS Automobiles also made the car completely autonomous, so you can sit back with a coffee in the snug capsule while the car takes you to your destination.
This side has design features not found on the driver’s side.
For one, it has feathers on the doors and behind the seats.
Because DS Automobiles is based in Paris, the fashion capital of the world, the brand wanted to feature elements of haute couture.
This side also comes with scented air, so passengers can breathe in fresh lavender as they’re ferried around the hazy city.
So, in the one car, DS Automobiles has created two completely different experiences.
This all-electric concept car is also completely road legal, so you can drive it on the streets, just as Supercar Blondie’s Alex Hirschi did in London.
The brand says the all-electric car has futuristic technology which makes it capable of bouncing back to its original form after a crash.
We’re not sure about this, as DS hasn’t shown it actually happening.
The DS X E-TENSE might sound like Elon Musk’s next child’s name, but this car is far from a Tesla.
It’s one of the most eye-catching creations ever to exist, with the car going viral on TikTok every time it’s shared.
Check out this video of Alex driving the car through the streets of London, where it quite literally stops people in their tracks.
