But back to Future vehicles, Lets start with a fresh sheet of paper shall we. we all want the Perfect car/vehicle, So lets imagine for a moment all indsutrial companies combined with all the car companies combined their synergistic efforts together to make:the perfect car. It has the the ultimate powerplant, Tremedously Powerful motor or propulsion system, And super Efficient, meaning it can go for momths or even years before a recharge or refueling of anykind is needed, safety was taken to a new plateau where it never was before, could even drive, maintain and fuel itself to the owners request, plus it had all the latest tech tool including being able to take a stool sample while seated to see if you have colon cancer by sitting too long or whatever.
Even with all the perfect this and that .
Listen it won’t change the fact it won’t stop people from doing the same stupid things over and over again. Every day you and i live. We already have too manyvehilce clogging up roadways.
This is a problem that needs to be addressed

A worthy thought, but Volvo sells safety. And for many of us, we’d buy safety over gas mileage. Volvo fills that niche. Safety features are very heavy and drastically reduce gas mileage, so Volvo would probably have a harder time accomplishing a 100 mpg car than a 99.9% safe car. Hopefully Volvo will find ways of being safe and fuel efficient (I must say that driving around in a car that is safe, has great utility and gets better gas mileage than many vehicles 15 years newer is gratifying and Volvo made it happen).

To the naysayers, well, we made it to the moon in about ten years of concerted effort. What is wrong with a goal that includes perfection? Even if not achieved, it will spur development that will drastically reduce deaths and injuries. You can laugh; but, as my mother is fond of reminding me: The fool didn’t know it couldn’t be done, so he went ahead and did it anyway. Or, my father’s preferred: Nothing beats a try but a fail. At least Volvo is trying.
