Abstract

This paper describes a novel concept regarding the method for research and development of future vehicles. It is shown that the traditional rate of progress cannot keep up with the increasingly pressing issues of global warming and social sustainability. A new, holistic approach which takes into account the form, operation and social aspects of the future society is suggested. This approach tries to remove the boundaries between different sections of science and also accelerate the rate and speed of adoption of new technologies into the final, mass-produced vehicle. Such an approach can pave the way for the creation of a vehicle that reaches our goal of zero accidents and zero emissions.
