What would our transport be like in 2088, about eighty years from now? 

Somebody might think of flying cars, teleportations, or magnetic levitations. But, if look back at the evolution of transportation, we have actually been quite unimaginative in the past. Have a look at the carriages below, one is from 2009 and the other a few years older. They’re still basically very similar: personal transportation units, with a driver, room for 3-4 passengers, and they roll on four wheels etc. They even look the same.

Honda has started to think what car’s would look like in 2088, and made an inspiring video out of the thinking process. The good thing is that they’re not just thinking of how to continue this personal-four-wheeled-vehicle trend but how to revolutionize it.

They’re talking about leapfrogging, doing the same for auto’s what cell phones did to land lines, and creating a Facebook on wheels. Honda is dreaming of 2088.
