As we speak, car designers are probably sketching new futuristic car designs five to ten years in advance. With new technology and better science, cars that were once only imaginable in sci-fi movies now drive among us. </p><p>From autonomous driving to artificial intelligence, the gap between fantasy and reality is closing, with cars so advanced they feel like they’re from the future. These 11 futuristic cars will grab attention wherever they go, and there is no time machine required, as they’re available right now. </p><h2><b>1</b> <b>Mercedes-Benz EQS</b> </h2><h2>Base MSRP: $104,400 </h2><p><b>Mercedes-Benz EQS Sedan Specifications </b></p><p>Powertrain </p><p>Electric </p><p>Power </p><p>355 hp </p><p>Torque </p><p>419 lb-ft </p><p>0-60 </p><p>5.8 seconds (450+) </p><h2>Futuristic Features </h2><ul><li>56-inch curved hyperscreen </li><li>HEPA air filtration system </li><li>Adaptive air suspension </li></ul><p>The Mercedes-Benz EQS sedan is an odd-looking car. Its smooth body barely has a crease, making it look like a spaceship. Adaptive air suspension predicts and adjusts to glide over uneven surfaces, while rear-axle steering significantly improves stability at high speeds. </p><p>Inside, the groundbreaking curved 56-inch MBUX Hyperscreen engulfs the entire dashboard with multiple displays and an AI assistant that follows voice commands. Plus, a HEPA filtration system keeps cabin air clean and alerts occupants to harmful changes. </p><h2><b>2</b> <b>BMW iX</b> </h2><h2>Base MSRP: $87,250 </h2><p><b>BMW iX Specifications </b></p><p>Powertrain </p><p>Electric </p><p>Power </p><p>516 hp </p><p>Torque </p><p>564 lb-ft </p><p>0-60 </p><p>4.4 seconds (xDrive50) </p><h2>Futuristic Features </h2><ul><li>Self-healing body components </li><li>Electrochromatic panoramic roof </li><li>Color-changing exterior (iX Flow) </li></ul><p>One of our favorite new futuristic cars, the BMW’s iX is a cool luxury electric SUV that’s way ahead of its time. An electrochromatic panoramic roof replaces a traditional glass roof with changing opacity, allowing the light in while adding privacy. Another feature that all cars should have is self-healing body components that can eliminate minor scratches. BMW seems to want to go a step further in this areas and has filed a patent for laser-etched plastic body panels that kiss paint chips goodbye . </p><p>Going a step further than self-healing, BMW teased a color-changing exterior for the iX Flow. Taking inspiration from a Kindle, the iX would be coated in E-ink, which can be customized at the push of a button. Although thsi feature is not available on production iXs yet, this futuristic-looking car is still one of the most advanced models on the road. </p><h2><b>3</b> <b>Toyota Mirai</b> </h2><h2>Base MSRP: $50,190 </h2><p><b>Toyota Mirai Specifications </b></p><p>Powertrain </p><p>Hydrogen Fuel Cell </p><p>Power </p><p>182 hp </p><p>Torque </p><p>300 lb-ft </p><p>0-60 </p><p>9.2 seconds </p><h2>Futuristic Features </h2><ul><li>Hydrogen power </li><li>Uses smartphone as a key </li><li>Digital mirror </li></ul><p>When the Toyota Mirai first appeared on the roads, it sparked curiosity with its unique powertrain. Long before electric cars were mainstream, the Mirai wielded an alternative fuel source – a hydrogen fuel cell. Unlike a conventional EV, the Mirai's electric powertrain converts hydrogen gas into electricity, and it can be filled with hydrogen in a fraction of the time it takes to recharge a normal EV. </p><p>The space age-looking car that the Mirai is also embraces modern convenience with smartphone-based keyless access and ignition and a digital rearview mirror. These technologies, combined with its zero-emission powertrain, keep the Mirai as a space-age car where high-tech sophistication and environmental consciousness coexist harmoniously in personal transportation. </p><h2><b>4</b> <b>Hyundai Ioniq 5 N</b> </h2><h2>Base MSRP $66,100 </h2><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=0ieOXU_0vNZn1k500" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0ieOXU_0vNZn1k500" width="1500" height="1000" ><figcaption>Hyundai</figcaption></figure><p><b>Hyundai Ioniq 5 N Specifications </b></p><p>Powertrain </p><p>Electric </p><p>Power </p><p>641 hp </p><p>Torque </p><p>568 lb-ft </p><p>0-60 </p><p>3.25 seconds </p><h2>Futuristic Features </h2><ul><li>Fighter jet-inspired soundtracks </li><li>Simulates conventional dual-clutch automatic </li><li>Vehicle-to-load power </li></ul><p>This is one of those cool futuristic cars that primarily astounds when it comes to performance features. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N has an interesting retro design that looks like it could be from an old computer game with futuristic flair. Inside gives the same vibe, using an augmented reality head-up display to show a rev counter and other driving information. </p><p>Despite having no gears, there are paddle shifters behind the wheel to replicate gear changes, and it mimics engine sounds to add sensation to this electric vehicle. Even though it's all fake, the Ioniq 5 N sets the bar for electric performance cars. Also boasting a vehicle-to-load function, the 5 N can power a console to continue playing when you park. </p><h2><b>5</b> <b>Audi e-tron GT</b> </h2><h2>Base MSRP: $106,500 </h2><p><b>Audi e-tron GT Specifications </b></p><p>Powertrain </p><p>Electric </p><p>Power </p><p>523 hp (Boost Mode) </p><p>Torque </p><p>464 lb-ft </p><p>0-60 </p><p>3.9 seconds </p><h2>Futuristic Features </h2><ul><li>Laser light technology </li><li>Synthetic sound </li><li>Looks like a robot </li></ul><p>The Audi e-tron GT looks robotic with its sleek, aerodynamic design. Accentuated by Matrix LED headlights with Audi laser light technology, this futuristic car was chosen as the perfect car for tech-billionaire <i>Tony Stark</i> in <i>The Avengers: Endgame.</i> We wonder if he has upgraded now, since the 2025 Audi RS e-tron GT is better than its predecessor. </p><p>Audi has also addressed the silent nature of electric vehicles by incorporating synthetic vehicle sounds, enhancing pedestrian safety and driver engagement. The e-tron GT is one of the futuristic car designs that is widely admired. </p><h2><b>6</b> <b>Lucid Air</b> </h2><h2>Base MSRP: $69,900 </h2><p><b>Lucid Air Specifications </b></p><p>Powertrain </p><p>Electric </p><p>Power </p><p>430 hp (Pure) </p><p>Torque </p><p>406 lb-ft (Pure) </p><p>0-60 </p><p>4.5 seconds (Pure) </p><h2>Futuristic Features </h2><ul><li>Multiple digital displays </li><li>Class-leading range </li><li>Looks like a spaceship </li></ul><p>Lucid is leading the way in the electric car market, posing as a stylish EV with mind-boggling specifications. We drove the 2024 Lucid Air Pure - the base model – and we were astonished. </p><p>Despite being the cheapest model in the lineup, the Pure still packs multiple digital screens, taking a minimalist approach to interior design. Compared to the egg-shaped Mercedes EQS mentioned above, the Lucid is one of those futuristic vehicles that slice through air, and looks great doing so. </p><h2><b>7</b> <b>Lexus LC</b> </h2><h2>Base MSRP: $98,450 </h2><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=0hTnlB_0vNZn1k500" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0hTnlB_0vNZn1k500" width="1500" height="844" ><figcaption>Lexus</figcaption></figure><p><b>Lexus LC Specifications </b></p><p>Engine </p><p>5.0-liter V8 </p><p>Power </p><p>471 hp </p><p>Torque </p><p>398 lb-ft </p><p>0-60 </p><p>4.4 seconds </p><h2>Futuristic Features </h2><ul><li>Dramatic, concept-like styling </li><li>CVT combined with four-speed automatic (hybrid model) </li></ul><p>The Lexus LC is a perfect GT car with so many reactive parts that it feels alive. Much of this car's futuristic nature stems from its stunning, outlandish styling, which makes a fine impression of a concept car. Under the skin, though, Lexus sticks with a naturally-aspirated, large-capacity V8 with an addictive engine note. A V6 hybrid model is available with the unusual combination of a CVT and conventional four-speed automatic. With its adaptive suspension, the LC rides smoothly and comfortably. </p><p>The LC also features dynamic rear steering, which enhances agility at low speeds and stability at high speeds. Inside, the driver-focused cockpit integrates cutting-edge technology with luxurious materials. </p><h2><b>8</b> <b>Honda CR-V e:FCEV</b> </h2><h2>Base MSRP: $50,000 </h2><p><b>Honda CR-V e-FCEV Specifications </b></p><p>Powertrain </p><p>Hydrogen fuel cell </p><p>Power </p><p>174 hp </p><p>Torque </p><p>229 lb-ft </p><p>0-60 </p><p>8.5 seconds (estimated) </p><h2>Futuristic Features </h2><ul><li>Plug-in hydrogen fuel cell powertrain </li><li>120V/1,500w AC external power supply </li><li>Ultra-rare with only 300 units produced </li></ul><p>The Honda CR-V e-FCEV is a look into the future.
