OK so I’ve actually looked into this a couple times because I was curious can you build a one seater car that is smaller and works sort of like a Waymo or cruise -  is autonomous and can move in the city

One of the difficulties with this is that in building a chassis for a car it cost about the same for a one seater as it is for a four seater so the consequence of this is that you naturally optimize for carrying more people and so you’re gonna end up with bigger cars 

that being said it doesn’t really go into the theme of trucks and SUVs becoming bigger but I think that’s a separate story

Once thesis is done I should start an envisioning and speculating design series of personal crazy ideas and interesting internet ideas as this.

Someone hold me accountable.
