Darwin S. Hatch surveys the motor car future, predicting gas turbine power, simplified control with a single fuel throttle, air or water cooled turbine, memory-less clutch, long wheelbases, four-wheel steering, and modular gas containers. He envisions metal bodies, leather remains, automatic tops, and year round use as fuels shift beyond petroleum by 1950.
