At this rate, sooner or later we’ll just teleport everywhere and cars will become obsolete. I guess in the meantime we can field brilliant concepts like the Halcyon car from Ralph-Tayler Webb.
This car is specially designed to allow the driver to experience nature without the regular distractions of the road. It is made to mimic an owl. The body of the car is made from a material that is similar in composition to an owl bone and it is sound absorbent in order to keep the inside quiet. The glide of the Halcyon concept is like a midnight browse for a snack.
It’s light, quick, quiet and a futuristic masterpiece.
