When we first met, that’s what it looked like. When I think of it, I was the first car that really cared about them. Ah, those weekend getaways! But then the family broke apart. Became recomposed. Mixed. Nobody’s act to follow. But I hang on. I too have evolved. When they all started living with screens, I joined in, too. I’ve incorporated a glass roof, easy access, smart storages. I’ve always tries to adapt to their needs. Sometimes even anticipate them.”, the voiceover says.
