VW EcoRacer: Uses biometrics

Here is a nice article about the use of biometrics in VW's EcoRacer.

Volkswagen’s weird lightweight diesel sports concept, EcoRacer, has collected together a few currently promising technologies in its cockpit, not the least of which is the use of fingerprint biometrics to unlock the “sports” driving profile.

As VW says, “If, for instance, your 18-year-old son or daughter with little driving experience wants to drive the EcoRacer, it is possible to activate a mode in which the sports car does not develop its full power, the top speed is electronically reduced, and ESP is always active.”
