The changing face of transportation in the present era is just a taste of what we will likely see in the decades to come, so the McLaren Future Grand Pix has been unveiled as a glimpse into the year 2050.
The vehicle features an electric powertrain along with an innovative charging system that will actually draw energy from the circuit via inductive resonant coupling to eliminate the need for recharging. The race car also integrates AI technology into the design to help drivers without completely removing the human driving experience from the equation. This includes dedicated periods when the technology will black out to only be controlled by the human driver.
The McLaren Future Grand Pix concept vehicle is finished off with an aerodynamic design that promises optimized efficiency on the track.
