What that is , changes .. little by little .. over time and from person to person.

It was this kind of thing back in 1771 Cugnot's steam wagon


By 1885 it was this kind of thing , the Benz Motorwagen, internal combustion engine


By 1915 it was this kind of thing , Ford Model T


No one has a perfect resolution crystal ball of exactly what the future will be .. but .. one thing is 100% certain .. things will change .. and what people call a 'car' will continue to change as well.

I for 1 think it would be fantastic if we had super efficient (aero/weight) maglev human powered 'cars' like that .. although I don't think I will live long enough to see that much of a change from the current structure.
