WHAT would your dream car of the future look like? A group of schoolchildren were asked just this, and here are some of the amazing results!

The project was created in response to the news last year that the sale of diesel and petrol cars will be banned from 2040. The company GoCompare wanted to see what young people wanted from their future vehicles.

The ideas featured everything from eco-friendly designs to unicorns, robots and of course, flying cars. Young people also suggested alternative fuel sources, such as hydroelectricity, solar power and even chocolate!

Among the car creations was 11-year-old Harnitha’s The Beast Racer 210 (pictured above). This dragon-like car has wings for hover flight mode and an anchor hidden in the car’s tail. The vehicle functions on land or water and has a heat-proof chassis (the frame of the car) that glows in the dark. So cool!
