Why are people always waiting for new technology? The fuel efficient technologies have existed since before World War II. Anyone who drives are car with fewer than 2 passengers is just plain inconsiderate and does not care about the environment. Bicycles already exist and are easy to come by. My $2000 (brand new) motorcycle gets 104 mpg and out accelerates most drivers on the road even when I have a passenger. If you are looking to save money on gasoline or protect resources, do it now, buy a motorcycle. I use mine in the rain and snow, no problem. If half the people would switch to motorcycles and governments around the world would legalize lane splitting then motorcycles would fix the traffic problem too. Here's one place where you can get a "futuristic" fuel efficient vehicle: http://www.vento.com/
