"Chinese electric vehicles have become increasingly packed with unconventional features, like built-in massage seats, karaoke systems and a fridge, to stand out in a highly competitive market.

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."

Am I supposed to unbuckle while driving, pull down my pants, and then shit on my commute? Or do I get in the habit and drop my pants when I get in the car just in case? I don't understand how this is supposed to be used. And for all the other times I just have to deal with a hole in the middle of the car seat?
