But what does the future hold for personal transport cars?<\/p>\n<p>People have been interested in getting from point A to point B, quickly, comfortable and efficiently for years. Since we don\u2019t have Star Trek transporters yet, then future personal transport cars and vehicles will have to do in the interim.<\/p>\n<p>On this picture page are a few futuristic personal transport vehicles the I must admit have a certain coolness factor (perhaps I\u2019m admitting too much? I don\u2019t get it. Neither do it.). Yet I digress. So, let\u2019s progress and check out the future of personal transport vehicle and envision how we and the children of today will be driving them tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Hawk Future Car\" src=\"http:\/\/www.futuretechnology500.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/hawk-future-car.jpg\" alt=\"Hawk Future Car\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Hawk (pictured above), by New Zealander Alexander Hodge is a one-seat persona transport concept vehicle that is theoretically powered by a Honda RC51 V-twin 999cc engine and contains a fiberglass outer shell.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"VW 2020 Personal Transport\" src=\"http:\/\/www.futuretechnology500.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/vw-2020-personal-transport.jpg\" alt=\"VW 2020 Personal Transport\" vspace=\"5\" width=\"346\" height=\"327\" \/><br \/>\nThe VW 2020 Personal Transport Future Car (pictured above) was designed by Sergio Luna (meaning lunatic or perhaps moon as in the sky\u2019s the limit kind of thinker) as an electric car based upon Segway technology.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Honda 3R-C\" src=\"http:\/\/www.futuretechnology500.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/honda-3r-c.jpg\" alt=\"Honda 3R-C\" width=\"590\" height=\"374\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Honda 3R-C Minimal Transport Vehicle (pictured above) is a prototype combining motorcycle and car. The future car has two-wheel in front stabilizing the vehicle and one wheel in the back. The glass windshield moves upwards and back and can cover the entire upper part of the personal transport vehicle in inclement weather.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Explicit\" src=\"http:\/\/www.futuretechnology500.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/explicit.jpg\" alt=\"Explicit\" width=\"464\" height=\"375\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Explicit personal mobility vehicle (pictured above) is the creation of Kenyon Yeh (yeah, that\u2019s right Yeh, so yea). The concept was to create a small vehicle for a single person to navigate around in thick city traffic. Oh, yeah, and make it tough looking, too so that hoodlums won\u2019t pick on you.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" title=\"UNO\" src=\"http:\/\/www.futuretechnology500.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/uno.jpg\" alt=\"UNO\" width=\"325\" height=\"278\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The UNO single seat personal urban vehicle is a design concept by Juan Alberto Cruz Gomez to further downsize the SmartForTwo into a one-seater that could deal deftly with inner city traffic while doing so with style.<\/p>\n<p>These are just a few of the cool future personal transport cars that have been conceived to let others know what is possible.
