Seres Patent Sparks Slide-Out In-Car Toilet Talk in EVs

TL;DR Summary
Chinese EV maker Seres has patented a slide-out in-car toilet (patent B60R15/04) that would deploy from under a seat, vent odors, and use electric heating to manage waste—potentially usable in second-row space. While Seres markets the Seres 5 and 7 without such a system, the concept mirrors RV waste tech adapted for EVs and has sparked humorous speculation about a future in-car poop era and a push to close the “car-pooping” gap.
