With a 4K TV and plush captain’s chairs, Lexani’s mobile office will make going to work easier

Welcome to the least productive mobile officer ever.

Boutique luxury conversion company Lexani has announced its Concept One Curve, a 2015 Cadillac Escalade fitted with a 48” 4K Smart TV, a Mac Mini computer, and an Apple iPad Air II.

It may be hard to focus with all this technology staring at you, but if you can, you won’t find a more comfortable place to get things done.

Lexani calls the concept the world’s first mobile office and theater. In addition to the curved television and home electronics, there are plenty of other goodies to back up that claim.

The impossibly luxurious rear compartment has been upgraded with a raised ceiling, ultra plush leather captain’s chairs, and more digital displays than The Enterprise itself.

Security cameras and electronic window shades keep the grubby fingers of the middle class outside, while TracVision Satellite availability and a touch screen management system keeps you in the loop.

For those days when you feel productive, there’s video conferencing and a retractable partition for business meetings. For the days when you don’t, gold-plated airline tables and nap-inducing upholstery are there to help you rest.

It all comes together in a truly glamorous and enviable mobile space. This is the type of luxury that seldom few get to experience, and because Lexani doesn’t list the price of the Concept One Curve, you know it’s going to be otherworldly pricey.

Lexani doesn’t do just Escalades. The Corona, California-based firm is perhaps best known for high-end wheel design, and the group also makes armored cars.

The outfit has previously tricked out Lincoln Navigators, Toyota Land Cruisers, Mercedes-Sprinters, and GMC Yukons.

A new sodium battery posts wild four-minute charging numbers, but don’t expect it in an EV yet
The breakthrough could improve fast charging and battery life, but the study hasn’t demonstrated those results in a production-sized pack
EV Charger

A new sodium-metal battery has posted a charging number that makes today’s EVs look painfully slow. In laboratory testing, the cell operated at a 15C rate, equivalent to completing a charge or discharge in roughly four minutes.

That doesn’t mean researchers plugged in an electric car and watched it fill up before the driver finished buying coffee. The result came from a small experimental cell using a new quasi-solid electrolyte, while the larger pouch-cell prototype delivered far less dramatic performance.

The Apple Car may be dead, but it became the foundation of Apple Intelligence
A decade of work on a canceled car project reportedly laid the groundwork for Apple Intelligence.
Apple Intelligence in Apple Car

The Apple Car may have never left the garage, but it apparently gave birth to Apple's AI ambitions. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple's canceled autonomous vehicle project, one that consumed more than a decade of work and over $10 billion before being scrapped in 2024, ended up laying the technological foundation for Apple Intelligence. In a rather ironic twist, one of Apple's most expensive failures may also become one of its most important long-term investments.

The Apple Car forced Apple to think like an AI company

Volkswagen’s ID. Unyx 09 just leaked, and it’s the kind of EV I want to see in the US
VW's partnership with Xpeng is producing exactly what we hoped.
Bumper, Transportation, Vehicle

I've been watching Volkswagen's China lineup quietly get cooler for the past two years, but the ID. Unyx 09 might be the moment it finally gets exciting, not just for Chinese buyers, but for the rest of the world as well. 

Regulatory filings from China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Batch 409, have exposed the full specs of the upcoming sedan ahead of its official launch later this year, and it looks nothing like any VW car I've seen before (via CarNewsChina).
