Fly by wire steering, I'm not sure I like the idea of no physical shaft connecting to steering box . If thats what they mean by 'fly by wire'
Imagine going along freeway & total system failure , unlikely but what if you get hit by lightning for example . Losing brakes is one thing but no steering is something I have not experienced, would be frightening.

Other than that it makes a lot of sense.

I watched that last night, seems to be a lot of wasted space up front.
Should have made it a cab over style.

Agreed, I was thinking maybe a USA mentality thing, Not many vans or forward control vehicles on the American market,, though VW Kombis were popular with the hippy culture.
