A new car can smell like you've peed your pants

Arcfox Koala is a compact car designed for families with children. Therefore, it can also smell like someone has peed in their pants.

You can hopefully and probably hold water well. But it is not certain that junior can do it. Therefore, Arcfox Koala knows if someone has peed in their pants.

The car from China is equipped with scent sensors that keep an eye on whether the air quality changes in the cabin. A special air conditioning system must then start to counteract the smell, just as the driver is notified.

This is written by Carnews China according to Auto Bild.

The car, which is intended especially for young families with children, starts at 131,800 yuan at home in China. This corresponds to approximately 125,000 Danish kroner.

Arcfox is also part of the Chinese BAIC group. Here they have hired the designer Walter Maria de Silva, who actually retired himself from the position of Volkswagen's chief designer in 2015.

For that he managed to beat the lines (get it?, ed.) to everything from cars like the Alfa Romeo 156 in 1997, the original Audi A5 coupe in 2007, the VW Up! and the Volkswagen Golf 7 in 2012.

Walter Maria de Silva also had a hand in the game when Audi presented the first R8 concept in 2003. It happened at the international motor show in Geneva.

Today he draws family cars with a sense of smell. You can say whatever you want about that. But it is a radical change anyway.

Incidentally, the Arcfox Koala is not the first car to keep track of your bodily functions. The Toyota of the future, for example, knows when you need to fill the ton. Read more about it here .
