Two Hyundais/KiasI wonder what would happen if we engineered cars to withstand the 120mph crashes? Imagine the structural engineering, and imagine what the cars would look like---because it would dictate what the designers/stylists have to work with.
An excerpt from the 1958 Disneyland TV Show episode entitled Magic Highway USA. In this last part of the show, an exploration into possible future Transportation technologies is made. It's hard to believe how little we've accomplished on this front since 1958, and how limited the scope for imagining such future technologies has become. Witness an artifact from a time where the future was greeted with optimism. Note the striking animation style here, achieved with fairly limited animation and spectacular layouts.
