Car of the Future



So what is the car of the future? In other words, what appears to be the most promising technology explored by Click and Clack? Justify your response.

Based off of the findings of Click and Clack, it appears that the most promising technology for the car of the future is... electric cars. As of now, Tesla has brought a fully functional fully electric car to the market. The changes that can be made will be made slowly due to cost and our current amount of information about the technology. Even though the technology is not here, the steps that are being taken are steps in the right direction. As time moves on, the future car seems to be more tangeble. Electric cars are more efficient of fossil fuels because they use any. They are just as capable as a regular fuel power car, except for they are not able to travel as far. A major plus to the electric car is that it has zero I missions. In the state the world is now, we are trying to take step to improve the emission condition. The electric car is one of the few know alternatives to fuel that are safe and reliable.




What fields of study/work would support the development of the car of the future. Describe two different ones?

The two fields that would play a major role in creating the car of the future would be computer engineering and electric engineering. The technology that Tesla is using takes a lot of computer engineering in order for the the car to run and work smoothly and effeciently. The electric engineering place just as big a role as the computer of the car. An engineer would find the most effecient way to transport energy from the battery to the parts of the car the require the use of the power. The two fields, electric and computure engineering would have to combine. The computer would regulate the amount of electricity flow and where it goes at the specific time. All of the parts of the cars have to be working smoothing in order for an effecient and safe car is to be put on the market. A lot of research and time is spent perfecting the car of the future.
