CARS OF THE FUTURE - PREDICTIONS 10, 25 & 50 YEARS FROM NOW

The years 2033, 2048 and 2073 are the focus time periods of the research, covering functionality, design and high-tech features. The expert contributed predictions regarding novel automotive materials, AI technology and sustainable energy sources, among other topics.



The expert's predictions for 2033 included haptic feedback systems that could provide drivers with information by touch, as well as increased use of lightweight materials like carbon fibre.

By 2048, fully self-driving cars could be a reality. Advances in sustainable energy sources could mean cars are solar powered or use solid state batteries.



The vehicles imagined for 2073 are very different to cars today, with VTOL (vertical take off and landing) technology enabling them to fly. They could also be sentient and able to converse with their drivers.

The images based on the expert's predictions serve to illustrate just how exciting cars might be in the years to come.
