⚡️👀 NEW - Chinese carmaker, Seres, has been granted a patent for a voice-controlled in-vehicle toilet so a passenger doesn’t have to leave their car to go to the bathroom.

The patent filing shows the toilet being activated by voice commands and sliding out from the bottom of a seat.

The system comes with a fan and exhaust pipe to make sure the odors make it out of the car, according to 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,” BBC reported.
