Volkswagen is amazing. Not only do they innovate on every product they bring to the market, they also intend to enter non-automotivemarkets. Now they are entering the office space with their first fully-motorized office chair.
Tha challenge was simple: Create an office chair with as many features from an actual Volkswagen car. And here's what they have achieved:
This feature-complete design includes, but is not limited to:
- 20 km/h speed
- Horn
- Seat warmer
- VW entertainment system
- HiFi speakers
- LED lights (party mode included)
- Trailer hitch
- A trunk for documents
Obviously this seat would be a great fit for any sim racing desk warrior. After all, the motorized wheels come with a parking brake, so you don't need to worry about your chair slipping away under heavy braking!
And there are all the immersion-giving details you need! Most sim-rigs don't have a reversing camera!
However, on the website for this innovative chair design, it says:
So if you ever want to try out this beautiful new desk chair and just happen to be in Norway, call your local VW dealer and check if they have one of these coveted models on display.
We at RaceDepartment will be looking forward to hearing your reviews.
