Engineers Create Foldable, Stackable Electric Car

Electric cars really don’t get much better than this. The “CityCar” concept, designed by MIT engineers, gives compact a new meaning. In addition to being stackable, they are also eco-friendly. This high-tech vehicle has wheels with integrated motors that can also rotate a full 360-degrees while moving. You won’t find seat belts in this car because responsive seats, also called “fingers”, hold a person back during an accident.

This would be cool in San Francisco where there is NO parking.

What happens when you’re the one parked in the middle and you want to go home? Don’t get me wrong, I love the idea but … the practicality may not be so easy except in an institutional setting, like a golf course, where you get the one that’s the most accessible.
