Previously, shuttle journeys were compromised for people with busy schedules. Now, the same journey is a source of inspiration and a seamless experience.This begins as soon as you open the electric sliding doors. Due to hands-free sliding side doors, you simply put your foot in front of the sensor installed in the sill panel. Once on board, the passengers' smart devices automatically connect to the on-board WiFi hotspot. The shuttle's various items of equipment are simultaneously updated based on the content of their documents.

The touch tablet with capacitive screen is the central interface for this ecosystem. It is positioned on an arch combining raw wood and resin, tradition and modernity. Sliding and reclining, it can be used in any way to get the job done: individual tablet, tablet split into four screens for just as many users, etc. Two induction charging terminals are arranged on the arch for powering smartphones.

SOUND EFFICIENCY

Passenger listening comfort is optimised by specific acoustic insulation and a FOCAL installation. In addition, it has four mediums and two tweeters, part of the audio installation developed by FOCAL following on from work carried out on previous concept-cars. This installation comprises 17 FOCAL loudspeakers – woofers, mediums, subwoofer, tweeters – carefully positioned in the vehicle. The loudspeakers are supplied by three FOCAL FD amplifiers for a total power of 1,300 Wrms. The control of these elements by Digital Signal processor adapts the sound to the architecture of the passenger compartment. Thanks to the best level of acoustic comfort in the segment, listening to your playlists on your smartphone is a pleasure.

The PEUGEOT connected navigation is set to the address saved for the new appointment. As the destination is the hotel booked, the 32" giant touch tablet connects to the corresponding website for a virtual visit of the room via the Samsung Gear VR virtual reality headset. A producer can visit a potential filming location in an enhanced way. Ultimately, the designer can use this device to view products under development.

Whatever their profile, they all save time, with their smartphone transforming into a console for streamlining their everyday life. In this way, they can check in and check out of their hotel room from the shuttle. Once at their destination, passengers can go straight to their room without having to go to the reception because an electronic key has been downloaded on to their device. When they leave, the invoice is generated automatically, and payment can also be made by telephone.

The PEUGEOT Traveller i-Lab provides a solution to language problems for international travellers. When abroad, if the passenger changes his agenda, he no longer needs to try and make himself understood by the driver. The changed appointment is transferred directly into the driver's schedule.
