This year's Los Angeles Auto Show includes the fourth annual Design Los Angeles conference for automotive designers. Part of the conference is the Design Challenge which this year tries to imagine transportation a half century from now. The entry from Honda designers Ben Davidson, Khrystyne Zurian, Shae Shatz envisions a robotic modular vehicle comprising four pods. When coupled together they can travel at higher speeds and use a car pool lane. Once they approach the destination they can separate into smaller single seater vehicles that are easily maneuverable. Power comes from a solar hybrid system and the name is One to the Power of Four.
