Cars of the Future: The Next Big Thing
There seems to be no end to the ideas that car developers and manufacturers come up with. These ideas take on a life of their own once they are fed to the public, each fighting to be the next big thing. Some, after being conceived are right away thrown to the realm of forgotten concepts. Others live different life spans. Some make it to rumor circuits, others to print and drawn designs. Others are actually made, tested and exhibited. A lucky few eventually hit mainstream and the really great ones find a niche for themselves at our garage. With this in mind, one cannot help but think what our cars will look like in the future. I was browsing through some of the latest concept cars shown in recent exhibits and I did get my hand on some great finds. The following are a few of the ones I personally liked. I have never driven any of these nor have seen them in person. Still, I have a feeling that in the future, when I see one of these on our roads, these ideas will give me a feeling of de’javu. So here is a look at them, or the way I put it, a peek into the future…![]()
