Future Vehicle Technologies
The average new car is packed with features we take for granted, yet things like self-parking and sat-nav were just radical theories or movie effects a generation ago. And even when electric cars like the T.27, billed as the "most efficient in the world," are introduced, you have to wonder what will be available when our kids shop for their rides. Concealed machine guns and oil slicks will probably never reach options lists, but vertical lift-off and teleportation would be handy and less lethal. Who knows?
To get a better idea of future vehicle tech in development -- at least the ideas being openly and officially discussed by manufacturers -- we’re looking at innovations making the rounds on the auto show circuit today and forecasting when they might be available in the near- and not-too-distant future. Bear in mind that innovations are always subject to change, and the cars housing them may never reach production as shown, if at all. Still, showing off future vehicle technologies in stylish automotive packages is far more appealing than a display of scattered components and circuit boards.
