Nissan Pivo 2 - If it only drove itself

Picture to the right is of the Nissan Pivo 2, an electric concept car that got a write-up today at Jalopnik.

In addition to being all electric, the wheels and the cabin can all rotate. This means no reverse gear is necessary (which simplifies the transmission among other things), and that parallel parking becomes much simpler.

The design looks a little funky, but for the kind of commuting I do, my only complaint would be the fact I still have to drive it myself. Hopefully it isn't TOO many more years before I can get a self driving car and sit back and browse the web while the car deals with traffic jams and the like.
