I wonder if we were afforded a glimpse into the not too distant future,what would these cars be like?

Body panels made from recycled plastic,speed governor limited to 65mph with brief,computer monitored acceleration boost.
Standard breathaliser starter,hybrid drivetrain mated to an anemic,smogged-up 90hp 4 banger,standard coded GPS transmitter so L.E.can track your position anywhere.

Hmmm,anyone else wish to add anything I may have neglected to include?
I think you vastly over estimate the top speed. Because "they" want us out of our cars, they will be limited to 40 mph, maybe 50 HP.
Oh joy!
