Mercedes Benz has unveiled its autonomous F015 Luxury in Motion car at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas that has a self-driving concept.

Highlighting Mercedes' vision for autonomous driving, the chairman of Daimler AG and head of Mercedes-Benz Cars Dieter Zetsche said that the vehicle is geared towards future roads populated with "exclusive cocoons on wheels."

Zetsche said that people who focus only on technology have not grasped how autonomous driving will change the society.

The capsule shaped car measures 17 feet in length while only 5 feet in height, reported CNET.

It has 26-inch wheels that are pushed to the far corners of the vehicle to maximize passenger space, said Zetsche.

There are six high-resolution touch-screen display panels on the doors that allow passengers to use touch, gestures, or eye movements to navigate, browse, or see outside the car.
