This Just Doesn't Look Safe


The AirPod can run 125mi (200k) at a top speed between 28 to 43mph (45 to 70kph). The car is intended for a single rider, and has a small cargo area in the back. While the technology may be a breakthrough in clean and environmentally friendly engines, the single-user design of the car may make it less than practical for a lot of users, especially in the Indian market and other such overly congested areas of the world.

I like this. It can double as a coffin for the human occupant pilot when he drives over a mountain cliff in the mountainous region of India. I have seen how they drive over there. It's a fifty-fifty chance that you are going to get home alive when you walk out the door in the morning. But that is life in Mumbai for the young urban professional.

Looks like an escape pod.

Don't those things always malfunction?

Yep, they always crash on a forbidding planet.

With a killer robot that goes off his nut at the first possible chance.
