Chinese carmaker Seres has been granted a patent for what it calls an "in-vehicle toilet" that slides under a passenger's seat for visits to the loo while on the road.
The feature is meant to "satisfy users' toilet needs on long journeys, while camping or while staying in the car", engineers wrote in Seres' patent filing in China on 10 April.
The patent filing shows Seres' plans for an onboard toilet that slides out from the bottom of a passenger's seat with a push or through voice-activated commands. The loo will come with a fan and exhaust pipe to channel odours out of the car, according to the filing on China's intellectual property administration seen by the BBC. Waste is collected in a tank that has to be emptied manually. The toilet also features a rotating heating element that evaporates urine and dries other waste.

Indian automobile company Tata tweeted a statement claiming their cars are ‘specifically designed to be driven on an interconnected 6.6 million kilometer toilet system,’ along with a meme of Xzibit from the MTV show ‘Pimp my Ride.’” (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5857813&forum_id=2Reputation#49823271) |
