Dream with the designers from the [Royal College of Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c6). Dream about a future for cars where they are made of aerodynamic glass. Dream about running a red rocket-bar that resembles a motorcycle with a side car.

Now remember that all the cars designed had a vision of being energy efficient. The ultralightweight materials, driverless navigation, and [electric engines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-hypercar-prototype) are all part of the dream.

The [RCA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rca) has cranked out exceptional designers in its 40 years. It's not a pipe-dream that these cars may someday see production
