BMW Group's Mini has unveiled the Mini Vision Urbanaut, a concept living room "retreat" on wheels.

The concept electric vehicle is filled with futuristic and fantastical elements, from changing interior layouts to a front dashboard that can transform into a daybed when the car is parked.

However, lounging spaces don't stop at just the daybed: the vehicle's entire interior is reminiscent of a bright living room with set floor plans, furniture, and even a plant. There's also room to sit on the floor when the single sliding door is open.
