His ideas are incorporated into everything around you, you just aren't seeing or understanding it.
The dymaxion car redefined both aerodynamics and space efficiency in vehicles. It inspired the VW bus, and lives on today in cabover vans and buses around the world, which efficiently transport a lot of people by allowing nearly the entire footprint of the vehicle to be used for passengers.
It was in no way a practical vehicle itself, but it showcased a huge number of new ideas that were later incorporated into vehicles- it was a 'concept car' with a huge impact.
