Smart Cars, Intelligent Highways

My Expectances of Cars in the Far Future

We human beings have made an unarguably progress on mode of transport, especially on the land one. We have passed from horses and carriages to mechanical and electrical vehicles. And all of this makes me wonder: What will happen in the far future? Will cars fly? Won't cars need a driver?

When thinking about groundbreaking cars features, these are the first ones that come to my mind:
  • Hovering:  I think cars will hover around 20cm off the road. To make this possible, the car might be made of  a hard and non-heavy material. 
  • No driver: Currently there are some companies, such as Google, that are testing their taxies with no drivers. These taxies will be always connected to the cloud, getting information about the traffic and the streets, and the weather. Of course, GPS will be included.
  • Electric motors: There are already vehicles that work with electric motors, like high-speed rails and e-bikes. There will be as many electric stations as gas stations are currently.
  • No buttons: Cars will carry a computer with voice command device that will allow people to give orders like lock and unlock the door, turn or off the radio, etcetera. The car computer will interact with its owner.
