The search for the ultimate [eco-friendly transportation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hop-vehicle) continues with the Car-On-A-Stick. Or Largest-Streetlamp-Ever. The idea behind Ross Lovegrove's car is that doubles as a street lamp, so there are no worries about parking. It would be [solar powered](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-solaris), voice-activated and carry [four people in a bubble](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sphere-vehicle).

The concept seems a little far out, but you never know what the future of inventions holds.

This is ideal for the person with a home of a stick.
