Lexus Concept Car from Minority Report

Lexus Minority Report concept car

The combined cars-plus-mass-transit in Steven Spielberg's 2002 Minority Report fascinated me from my first viewing of the film. It seems to combine the best of individual-based and mass-based travel.

This page on seriouswheels.com, which appears to be from a pre-movie Toyota press release, goes into some detail on the system: Lexus Concept from "Minority Report"

In the year 2054, some cars will be self-cleaning, some will drive in an accident free system, and some will change colors on command.[...]

When it came time to conceptualize automotive transportation for the futuristic setting, Spielberg turned to Lexus as a potential partner. "I've been driving a Lexus SUV," Spielberg said. "And I thought Lexus might be interested in going into a speculative future to see what the transportation systems and cars would look like on our highways in 50 years. The result of that exploration is something that elevates and transforms driving into an environmental experience."
