When we asked Google Gemini to create a Tesla in 2050, it came back to us with something truly remarkable.
By the standards of the automotive world, Tesla is practically a youngling compared to the other carmakers.
But it’s achieved an awful lot in the short time it’s been competing in the business.
So we couldn’t help but wonder what the future has in store for the EV maker. Here’s what Google Gemini envisioned would be coming in 24 years time.
Tesla has achieved a lot in a relatively short amount of time
When you think ‘EV’, the name Tesla isn’t too far behind.
Despite recent troubles with sales figures, the company has done an exceptional job in making itself ubiquitous with the growing EV market.
From FSD to the sharp edges of the Cybertruck, the American company has relentlessly pushed the boundaries of what a car can be.
It’s come to represent the modern age of cars, and in a lot of the ways, the future of the industry.
So that left us with one question – what lies in the future of this automaker?
We asked Google Gemini to come up with some ideas of what a typical Tesla car might look like in the year 2050, and this is what it created.
Here’s what Google Gemini thinks a Tesla in 2050 might look like
Its sleek silver body, the roomy interior, everything this concept screams futuristic.
Google Gemini envisioned this would be a fully autonomous car, having assumed that ‘Level 5 autonomy’ [Full driving automation, with no requirement for intervention from a human] would be standard by 2050.
Of the design, Gemini gives a lot of focus to the notions of efficiency and grace.
“The body uses an ultra-low drag teardrop shape, optimizing battery efficiency and high-speed transit,” it explained.
“Enclosed wheel wells reduce air turbulence to near zero, giving the silhouette a seamless, floating appearance.
“Simple, continuous light strips across the front and sides replace complex headlight clusters, retaining Tesla’s minimalist aesthetic.”
Describing this car as minimalist might be a bit of a stretch with our modern perceptions.
But who knows? This might be considered understated in a few decades.
It’s also worth noting what this Tesla of the future is driving upon.
Yes, the road is worth making note of here.
“The car rides on designated high-speed transit lanes featuring continuous wireless charging pads and magnetic levitation elements, eliminating the need for physical charging ports or heavy tire wear during long-distance highway travel,” Gemini noted.
What does this Tesla from the future look like on the inside?
From the inside, the car looks unlike anything we have in our current day-to-day life.
Face-to-face eating allows for all the car’s inhabitants to socialize while the self-driving car is in movement.
And while chatting away, the car’s occupants can enjoy the privacy afforded to them by the technology encasing the cabin.
“Building on Tesla’s iconic glass roofs, this single-piece transparent canopy uses smart-electrochromic glass, shifting from full opacity for privacy to complete transparency for views,” Gemini said.
It’s still a long way off, but we can’t wait to see how many of these predictions pan out in the years to come.
