Various manufacturers have presented concepts for autonomous vehicles in recent years. However, none of these concepts were designed specifically for the needs of a multi-generation family. A vehicle that meets these requirements can be used independently even by those who are dependent on an accompanying family member when using a conventional car. Furthermore, an autonomous family vehicle, as discussed in this paper, is intended for private use. The basis of the requirements of such a vehicle are the physical and mental abilities of its users. This paper pursues the approach of deriving initial functional requirements by considering examples of accompanied rides in a conventional car. Additionally, an outlook is given on the derivation of non-functional requirements necessary for the safe operation of the autonomous family vehicle.
