Nowadays a lot
of people travel by car, and their number increaces rapidly. Cars pollute the atmosphere.
The choice is ours whether we will continue to pollute the environment or not. New
cars require large amounts of energy in their production process, as well as during
their operation and it’s not easy but we should try to make cars as safe as
possible for ecology of the planet. It will take long time before our streets
will become silent, and environmentally clean. The engineers have designed a new
internal combustion engine and it will continue to play an important role in
the nearest 20-30 years. So what will be the car of the future? There are 2
options: 1) electric motor of small size and 2) hydrogen engine. There are
already hundreds of electric cars in Moscow but they are a drop in an ocean.
The cheapest way is to launch the production of hydrogen engines in the future.
I think it’s the
most profitable means. In future, the driver will have a large number of
electronic assistants. There won’t stay any mechanical parts. In future electronics will play more important role
in operating the car, than the driver. And in the distant future it may replace
the man at operating the vehicle. The owner will only set the route, and the
car itself will take him to places where it’s necessary. As for four-wheel cars,
the cars won’t change. In 20-30-50 years they will be unchangeable. Well, I
think we will see what the cars will be like in 50 years.
