I want the materials that create smaller personal transport. So I can see more than a few yards again, beyond the vehicles around me.
The rest of my fantasy is about driving around headlights that don't continually blind and the possibility of owning future car with physical controls but not screens.

- InMice 2y agoI would agree. Presently, it seems like any efficiency gains just means bigger vehicles. Driving a sedan nowadays is not fun at night.
- SoftTalker 2y agoSo much so. Regulators really need to get headlight aim and brightness under control.
- Electricniko 2y agoThe Citroen Oli (corrugated cardboard honeycombs with fiberglass) and Honda Sustaina C (acrylic resin) concepts are the two most interesting I've seen with small vehicles making a use of new lighter materials. I don't think either has been marked for production yet, and if you're in North America like me, we probably won't ever see them if they do get made.
