we need that bose suspension
mujjuman ya
Gold Expert but for luxury the money is not a prob and maybe the weight.
Yeah bring them back
mujjuman your wheels would stick to the bottle of your car
Bose u mean dose
I really wish the Bose suspension took off. Far and away the most useful thing on the list.
its just too heavy... maybe if they made it with aluminum parts though?
Rolls Royce would've eaten that shit up with a knife and fork.
Bobby Garrity especially here in nyc theres way too many pot holes it would of been perfect
K20civicsirturbo literally every road in California
Bobby Garrity they were too ahead of their time it’s probably doable know with new techniques
How about a radio system that shocks a person, other than the driver, when they touch the radio buttons
like a modified version of magnavolt
You still have buttons? I have to use a damn touchscreen.

You take your time for this ??
The Bose suspension is the best one to be honest
superEDWINx yea I wonder why it actually didn't catch on. I mean it might be expensive but something like rolls royce that would not be a problem. Maybe it would have something to do with making speedbumps useless and therefore illegal
TRUE
The problem was it was EXTREMELY heavy. Like 200lbs extra for the suspension.
OrfiCaldaRi
Camaro's, GTRs, basically any American muscle car weighs 4000lbs+. Furthermore cars lie Bugatti, Rolls-Royce etc those cars weigh a few tons. They would benefit with that type of suspension for the luxury feature and people who could afford those cars could afford the money for the poor fuel economy anyways
Spoonzaza a ton isn't that much, only about 2000 pounds and a gtr is less than 4000 pounds, around 3700
That bose suspension tho
I'm not sure if it's similar or basically the same thing that Audi put in Audi A8 2018 model, "Audi AI active suspension". So I suppose it's gonna keep on growing from there. ^^
HSV have a similar thing to Bose suspension and it's called Magnetic Ride Control
Mercedes does something similar with their ABC and Magic Ride Control systems.
Bose suspension also equipped with a bose sound system and a borla exhaust
Wenro don't forget the Camaro ZL1 since 2012! Though I'm gonna be honest. An incredibly quick supercharged Camaro feels fucking weird when it's lacking road feedback.
Regarding the EM/Bose suspension I can elaborate a bit why we don't have it already in cars
I work for a company that supplies shock absorbers and suspension systems. And the reason the EM suspension is not yet in production is due to the following reasons.
1. Regulation : Every safety component (steering, braking, suspension,...) that can work fully electronic needs an mechanical and/or hydraulic back-up. That is also the reason we still have brake lines and a steering column. So an EM system also needs damping in case of an electrical shut off, and this means an passive back-up system in parallel that interferes with the EM system.
2. Power Consumption : Every electronically damper consumes power, which in the end comes from the fuel we put in it. The current active suspension systems can consume more than 4 kW of power in extreme conditions, and from the literature I found these systems consume more than 5 kW in normal use. This means without considering the losses of converting this power, you lose almost 7 hp or the fuel consumption goes up. Also every OEM is investing in electric cars and these systems will just eat away battery, in cars where people are already not really sure about the range they can achieve. At this moment it is simply a no-go to use a very high tech system that will make the car consume more power, while there are systems that can give a huge improvement which only use 150 W on average.
3. Production cost : the dampers are still quite complex to build in high numbers, so the price goes up. If you look at MB magic body control which is an € 5500 option on a € 110 000 car, the supplier will probably ask about € 3000 for the system. And MB charges extra for the added complexity to the production line, and also the control algorithm needed to make the car drive. My guesstimation is that these systems will be costing over € 10 k for the end consumer.
4. Driving pleasure : When we experimented with active suspension, the first thing we noticed was the feeling of detachment. This is dangerous because there is no sense of reaching a limit until it is too late. So the system was tuned to be a bit worse on comfort to regain the steering and grip feeling. So if you want this in a non-autonomous vehicle, you have to tune it to be not ideal in comfort for safety and driving pleasure.
So again why waste € 10k in a system that cannot be used in it's full potential, and will be negative for the fuel consumption if you can have a € 5k (or less) system that will have a neglectable influence on fuel consumption and can be used for it's full potential.
EM suspension will come in the end, but probably only in autonomous vehicles, because of the steering and handling feel. Sorry for the long text, but I hope this gives some explanation why it is not yet here.
Corvettes and Ferraris use em suspension
daan menjoie this is probably the most well made comment on all of youtube
@@corvettezr1ism not true
actually, with the hydrogen engines such as the toyota mirai who's getting more and more present in japan, power would not be an issue.
the feeling of detachement is the definition of comfort and ergonomy, it's what we consumers want. we love that.
security is the main offender? let's change the laws concerning the matter to adjust to that new technology! "but it's not safe nuh duh" well technically nothing is safe, so let's just have awesome systems.
it's not like it's gonna make a difference in the number of accidents per year anyway.
There are cars with 100% electronic steering. I.e- No mechanical link at all between them
Thank god those rocket brakes never, *cough*, took off..
STOP IT!!!!! HAHAHAHA well done
Bose suspenseful. love the sound of that
Magnus Likes Tanks to bad there was the “ acne drag axle “ and it uses rocket fuel and yes I think it’s cool and at first I thought some was pulling my leg as a practical joke
lol
HEHEHEHHEHE I think my car would be the first thing to come down with the rockets😂😂😂
Maaan that bose suspension should have came to the market
TheLpd1 I guess they made nice speakers instead
TheLpd1 could have been featured in a rolls royce
true, If you can spend that money on a Royce, i'm sure you wouldn't mind the extra cost for a bose suspension
Agreed, the way it glides over bumps was awesome
r3h4n it looks incredible and I think it's actually amazing that they managed that in the 90's. Surely modern technology means it could be viable in today's market.
that bose suspention tho
Dave Dhanna Audi have something like this in New A8 and A7.
Audi's Magnetic Ride is like ten years old mate ...
TheEryk03 they have air suspension and predictive suspensions, no electomagnetic suspension
Dave Dhanna I would kill to have that thing on my car...
Fucking potholes
Supercars need it..
I’d invent an indicator that BMW drivers use.
just make it automatic like i dunno automatic transmission
@@Cx10110100 they'll find a way to not use it
😂😂
It's already invented, but mortals like you cannot see it
I can’t believe people still joke about this, grow up.
If cars could fly, 50% of all drivers would fly above someone else's car and try to land on it...
Even if flying cars did exist...they'd probably be too expensive and only a few rich people would have them....
hey jimmy lets play jenga with cars
@@TheReapr Do you know that every fucking new technology start like that you shtweped? Probably 150 years ago a shtweped carriage driver was saying "Even if no horse carriage exist, it would probable be to expensive and only a few rich people would haven them...¨.
Point is, dont be shtweped. Every new thing its expensive at first because it hast been perfected.

Rocket brakes would have increased pedestrian injuries by burning faces instead of taking knee caps off.
maxxjett films don't you mean decreased injuries and higher death count. Great way to die
Rompson die like a man!
Maxxjett, check these rocket brakes out!!!!!!! ua-cam.com/video/WKCl3lfAx1Q/v-deo.html

Knee caps and 3rd degree burns.
A two fur!!!!
They could be used to deal with cyclists that ride out in front of you. Just accelerate up behind them then slam on the brakes, they're toast.
Did I say 'deal with'? I meant could be hazardous to these specific cyclists. How unfortunate (these weren't produced).
Nuclear powered cars. Ford thought about making one in the fifties (Ford Nucleon), but never initiated.
Sammy Yeah, i want to be in THAT when it gets t boned.
Instead of a fire you get a small-scale nuclear meltdown.... :o
Sounds, pleasant...
Sammy if the crash doesn't kill you, cancer will!
Luckily we live in the real world, and not the Fallout universe were everybody thinks that putting nuclear reactors and batteries into machines is a swell idea.
Another company tried the same thing using Thorium instead of conventional nuclear materials. It didn't take off either. The threat of local nuclear contamination in a wreck was an issue, but the real killers were the weight and complexity of the system, and how much space it all required. Not much room for groceries or passengers in the thing.

suck, squeeze, bang, blow. is the 4'step process of how a petrol engine works
2:59 steam cars weren't actually slow for the time. They had really good torque and some of the cars could even go well above 60 mph.
slow to heat the water initially on startup, though
@@bloemundude Yeah, but then the gas cars of that era too did take some time (tho not as much as steam) and a lot of manual effort to start, compared to which, steam was superior at the time. The electric starter motor just killed off steam and also the other electric cars of the time.
bloemundude There were some steam cars that produced steam on demand, wich was a lot faster than boiling the entire water tank, while the regular steam car took about 30 minutes more or less, these took about 5 minutes or less to create steam. Watch Jay Leno's garage, he has some examples of these kinds of steam cars. I think a more better reason they never took off was safety, a boiling steam tank exploding right next to you is something you definetly dont want
Headlights that dont Completly Blind You At Night!!
High Intensity Discharge headlights A.K.A H.I.D? they're not as blinding to see as a regular L.E.D. headlights or Halogen headlights.
Many new cars now equipped with radar headlights which automatically dims when detecting opposite traffic
bilibiliism Those dontt work
They need to dim when I'm in front of them, tired of everyone's lights completely illuminating my side mirrors at stop lights
That technology is put in an Opel/Vauxhall astra aswell
The Bose suspension is incredible ... even better than a Citroen!
Incredible
Bose is just one of many companies that worked on magnetic suspension. It's widely available in many car lines today, but a rather expensive option though.
Audi has that now - using cameras and AI with pressurised suspension to get the same result

Hehehehe no wonder it took off cause I have no idea what either of those things are 😂😂😂😂
3:09 I'm glad that never took off..

I would definitely add indicators to BMW's if I was an engineer.
well, if ur still young, try and go for Engineering :)

Me: You need a Rolls Royce if you want the best ride quality
BOSE Suspension: 1:12
You need a Citroën* if you want the best ride quality.
@@Jinppa you need an citroen xantia or an citroen c6 hydraulic
@@clememe1 C6 yes, but Xantia? In terms of comfort, the old CX is easily better, not to forget DS which is said to be super-soft. Probably SM would be more comfortable too. In terms of both handling and comfort, I would say the XM has the best balance between the two. C6 comes very close, although strangely you can feel small ripply undulations at low speed - C6 is supreme on the motorway, though.
*automatically activated bmw indicators*
I'd settle for indicators that stay on until you complete your turn, not the 3-5 seconds it does now. Lol
Or a BMW detection system, alerts you when bmw is nearby.
I would love to have the interchangeable chassis. Just come home with a different model everyday and just mess with peoples minds😂
ah hell yeah
3:51 Fun fact, Preston Tucker, the designer of the Tucker 48, is the reason for a lot of our modern safety features. His car was one of the first to have seatbelts as standard. I would love to see what the Tucker motor company would've looked like today if the Big 3 hadn't shut it down. His car was a rear engine, RWD sedan powered by a lovely H6 which allowed the car to hit a top speed of 130 mph. That might not sound like much, but remember, this was in the 40s
Suspension:
Look at the Citroen Hydropneumatic.
It was a great system an was build over years.
The flying car technology never took off 😎

Bose suspension sounds like something you'd blast at 4 AM in the morning to wake up all the neighbours.
Kitsunemimi lol, Hydraulic Speakers...
just make a crank onto a 5horsepower engine that moves a giant woofer cone back and forth in a sinewave motion.. or a subwoofer that connects to your driveshaft rofl.. "yes I know both are dumb ideas"
Matthew19002 800w = about 1 hprse power so 4000w is 5hp so subwoofers have more power than that tbh most of the time
That suspension just caught on😂
I love how "can't get out of a car in a tight space" is always a reason for no gullwing doors in cars. Umm you can't get out of a normal car with normal doors if you're in a tight space either, and plenty of cars of those. granted you're right if the car rolls over, but most of the time normal doors are too banged up to get them open in a roll over too

They got to bring pop up lights back with updated led technology
Why would LEDs help popup headlights? The reason they're illegal is safety, there are to very big safety issues with popups:
1. They could simply break and not pop up, I don't need to explain why this is a problem.
2. Pedestrian safety. If a pedestrian got run over by a car with popup headlights, the headlights would cause major damage to the body, you can imagine how
@@jorge8596 #1) they're not 'illegal'
#2) the reason they've been dropped is aerodynamics
Even though that suspension isn't available, I'm proud that my E300 has Air Matic suspension.
in 50 years time someone will comment "i wish petrol pwered cars were still a thing"
Dominik Goslawski probably
Sadly, yes
Underscorer, what do you mean by this? Like a hydrogen internal combustion engine? BMW (_I think_) has already done this, and it is *_much_* less efficient than an electric motor powered by a hydrogen fuel cell.
Dominik Goslawski don’t you mean in 10 years
it is less efficient however it gives chances to older vehicles to still be on the road and retain their character aswell as producing zero emissions basically the old fashioned car enthusiasts choice for the future
Led pop-up headlights
Not really. I mean they are normal headlights but only a child of an design period. Like boxy looking cars
Dean Macmillan popup headlights are such an amazing thing. How are they childish?
Sorry then i used the wrong word. i own an Mr2 W2 myself and i love the pop ups. i meant to say they are something born in that design period
Make this happen
Bring back pop-up headlights

Small, inexpensive transport has already been invented. I believe they call them motorcycles.
Owen McKee not cheap at all lol at least most of them
the fastest bikes on the road can be had for less than the cost of a family sedan so...
They aren't that cheap. Buying a boring one is, but you need a bunch of safety equipment and and you have to worry about maintaining them a lot more. Valve gaps, chains, etc.
Those are also super dangerous
ast5515 no such thing as a boring bike unless you're buying a moped, you can get cbr and ninjas for dirt cheap

That tucker dude must have been like the elon musk of the 40s
One thing that I would really like to see is a feature where selected drivers (such as I, of course) would have a gadget that they could point at other drivers. The police would then come, stop the driver and beat him up. It's friendlier than machine guns and rocket launchers, and it has a marvellous educational effect.
Still have no idea why the Capsula Formula 1 car never took off
0TruckMafk ☢TM™"... The BigMean CommentSection BadAss The problem is the same as with the modular smartphones. Cars age, new models arrive too fast and there is much better money can be pulled off of a new model than making the same parts for decades. I'm happy that we all don't have to drive cars like the FORD T-Model today because of technical evolution.
those are all issues that desktop pcs have to deal with and they're still modular, a modular system by nature can't be outdated and can even be more up to date because instead of waiting for a new model to come out with new or improved features you can just install the upgrade, as far as profit it gives better control over the price of the product, instead of pricing just one product you're selling multiple, so while someone might buy one part from one company they might still prefer to get a different part from your company
i would question the crash safety of a modular car done in this style but the problems i'm picturing are present in cabover trucks, mainly being that when hit right the cab falls/flies/slides off [there are videos of them being hit by trains or other trucks and having the chassis pulled/knocked out from under the cab]
i know and now its pretty much a windshieldless f1 with the halo addition
Rocket brakes??? Reminds me to Garry's Mod thrusters lol.
Exactly xD
That Capsula is amazing!
I worked at Bose when they were working on the magnetic suspension. The major issue was getting a CPU that was fast enough to interpret the signals from the roadway to control it. The original development car was a Cadillac. Dr. Bose LOVED his Cadillacs. Later on they got it right apparently using a Lexus. I worked in IT, so I saw a lot of cool stuff. My NDA expired. Doesn't seem like it was that long ago I worked there, time flies.
Hi Beam headlight and high pressure horn for the rear of the car. You know exactly why.
my idea was use a chrome decal strip accross the back of your car so that high beams would reflect back at morons

20" light bar works great to
Ali Ahmed and this is why i have about 2000 watts of led light bars on the rear of my suburban
And I thought I will invent electromagnetic suspension.I had this idea since 4th class but now I know its a fail
M4 Fan you can trying it is not a bad thing maybe you can make it light and cheap to use..? Think about that for a second nowadays there is plenty of technology to execute somethings..!!!
if you can make it light... JACKPOT!
Remember that AWD in rally cars was considered useless until the Audi Engineers came and made it lighter. Perhaps you should try it.
a lot of cars actually already use it, most modern chevy sport cars and ferrari's use electromagnetic shocks for example
Honestly the way that BOSE LS400 glided over bumps kinda blew my mind. Sure this tech could become mainstream in the near future as it might be possible to cut down the costs and weight problem with modern technology.
The Bose suspension should be used in Toyota land cruisers,it will work great
Yeah and SUVs in general like GMC cars
Btw ClearMotion bought electromagnetic suspension from Bose and now is working with BMW.
First cars will hit mass production in 2020

Cars are getting smarter while people are getting dumber. Cars are fine how the are we just need better drivers in them.
Enoch Nichols by that logic we should just go back to the 20th century tech, because you know back then things were fine 7_7
BlackStar 458 I'm not saying that technology is a bad, it's good and getting better. I drive 1,200 miles a week for work and the stupidity on the roads is amazing, I don't see how there isn't many more accidents than there are. Making a car more "smart" has nothing to do with a person's inability to drive.
So I have to check you on the steam engine portion. A steam powered car held the land speed record for a while, not to mention they are incredibly easy to use and maintain. The main drawback was the time it took to bring a car up to full power. It couldn’t just crank and run like a gasoline engine.
1:20 Dude that Guy's Head in Conventional Suspension xD LMAO

ACTUALLY, turbine engines are used and praised in the military world, especially in the design of the M1 Abrams MBT. So technically, turbine engines did take off.

capsula idea was cool
Maybe if it looked decent... Cool idea to have interchangeable bodies for different purposes, but I see a lot of cool automotive ideas wrapped in such an ugly package that nobody wants it. I guess it's just an unwritten rule in the automotive realm that groundbreaking concepts have to be ugly, when the idea, often a very good one, could work just as well with a more normal-looking car someone could drive without a paper bag over their head.
They should invent pop-up taillights
NFSATALLA that would actually be pretty cool!
That would be dumb

NFSATALLA They're will NEVER be invented moron. And pop-up taillights would not work and would made a car look hideous
Geez, chill out people. Don't you ever learn about jokes? But just think about it. No pedestrian safety to be considered, and would create downforce on coupe bodies, rather than producing drag. And again: it. Is. A. Joke.
i did even know about the last one and i think thats sooo cool
I would really like to see lights that turn on automatically in low light become a legal requirement.
Jenny Gavin-Wear Define the moment it is low light. There's your problem. My car monitors the light and makes that decision for me. Eventually most cars will probably have that capability.
In my state it was argued that headlights should be turned on a hour earlier at dusk and off an hour later at dawn but the counter argument that carried the day was that late model cars have automatic light systems that would have to be changed to manual, and the lawmaker said he had no idea how to do that to his car. Apparently he spoke for most of them because it didn't pass.
so have it on all the time you yank
anything automatic especially lights is a disaster. Horrible feature. My car, for example, has automatic low lights whenever you get inside. This effectively means that if I want to just sit in the car I have to open the door then close the door and then lock the car from the inside in order for it to think I am outside
@@653j521 but then again. We have laws that just prohibit driving without lights on at any time of the day in finldand

The car will keep going straight in mid air until you look down and realize you drove off a cliff. In which the system will shut off and you will plummet to your death. So don't look down.
Rodney Jones just keep looking forward and keep driving😂
Rodney Jones isn't that cartoon physics
Wait a minute. Steam engines for cars werent slow. They were A LOT faster than the petrol engines. But you needed to build up a pressure before you could go.
The lexus technology us sort of being used now by the way of sport, sport plus and comfort setting you get in your amg, m-sport, Ferrari's, lambos etc......for firming up the ride.
I would love a electromagnetic set up on my daily as doung 3000miles a month would really make a big difference
the modular car looks like a fiat multipla. maybe that was the propuse
Rodrigo Esteban Molina Not that ugly piece of shit!
Deadly weapons fitted to cars like in "death race" by which you can clear your lane of foolish arrogant drivers , "car throttle" you should also stay away from my lane!
Just drive a big Land Rover with battered bodywork. You'll be surprised how other drivers don't want to get too close. Your car shows you have previous in 'i don't give a shitness!'
*Twisted Metal
Watch out CAR THROTTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ag135i You fucking know that's fucking illegal you fucking nigga!!!
Thorbjørn Madsen mind your language and behave yourself I also can use foul language and better than you , you mannerless rascal.
I’m doing electromagnetic suspension for a product for a marketing class in eights grade and I just found thi when I was scrolling on UA-cam
People are already dieing by normal cars imagine what flying cars would do
Well , they would make the car autonomous. The biggest issue is fun cannot be measured and marketed , so cars become less fun
Solar power on the roof of every car?
Solar power has improved so much. They should at least charge the battery full when parked
not really, it would take days to charge an ev battery, even in good sunlight. house roofs or mass installations are much more viable
who mentioned EVs? ICE cars can very well use solar to help charge the battery.
Bean_ It would take days 5 years ago. Not so sure about today. Either way every little bit helps, even if it charges it half way. Who leaves their car at empty all the time?
HomeAutomationX Some previous generation Toyota Prius models had solar powered roofs. The solar power was used to cool down the interior while the car was turned off and parked if I remember correctly.
#6crew oh wait wrong place
GAMERDUDE 2.0 ayye😂😂😂
Gaskings
GAMERDUDE 2.0 nah its #ECREW
he's pretty shit
Lol
*Watching to see if that GM rear axle turn tech is listed that they briefly had in their trucks*
You really need to mention the GM hy-wire which also was going to use a modular "skateboard" design. This went from a media sensation in 02 with a 08 production date to a full on concept that was abandoned due to limited refueling availability.
You forgot the v6 powered mazda miatas
Kasper Leinonen what about v6 powered Mx-3 ;)
Mx-3's are only bought for an engine swaps :>
Idk never heard about it. But I was making a joke about phil taking so long to get v6 swapped.
Kasper Leinonen okay, I got it now :D Anyway mx-3's v6 was as far as I know the smallest widely produced v6 in the world. Unfortunately mine is a L4... Yet.
MrBlackout23 cool. Good luck on the build.
Flying cars ✔, swimming cars ✔, LET'S DO SPACE CARS
There are three parked on the Moon, and two on Mars ;)
walking cars
YEAH BUT WE NEED WARP DRIVES
Digging cars, like a mole.
I've come from the future to tell you, that there is a car in space now.
I saw that capsula bit and laughed, because the whole 'body on a chassis' thing is exactly how cars were made. my old teacher had a triumph herald soft top, it was built as a sedan but he bought a new body, unbolted the old one and swapped them over
nice to see that bose suspension is now being used after all
I would make a Prius-seeking missile
Myles Burgess I would make a missile seeking prius
681nm, Oh damn.
I got on my truck bumper a sticker that says "prius repellent" with and arrow pointing down at the straight pipes lol
But, will it repel a BMW owner driving a Prius?
Myles Burgess i
I MISS THE POP UP HEAD LIGHT'S AND ROTARY!!!
people just say like "OH ITS BECAUSE OF NEW REGULATIONS" but if they use the technology in the early corvettes where the whole thing flips, like why would that be a problem?
the last one and the bose suspension is really good
imagine a multipurpose car that can change from a minivan to a tow truck, amazing
it would look ugly as shit if all cars looked the same tho lmao
Is it just me or does this guys' S syllable come off EXTREMELY sharp?
Mustangs don't need brakes. They just hit crowds to slow down. 👌😂
WL26 DETT nah you got that wrong m8, mustangs run over crowds, then hit the brakes
Confucius Mustang tech tip - Man who drive Mustang on curvy road, never crash.
My favourite innovation that hasn’t taken off lets humans actually control the car’s transmission and engagement with the road! Enabling lighter weight, better control, in gear revving, and drifting/burnouts without immense power.
It’s called a fucking manual and they’re so hard to find in nice cars now god dammit.
Christopher O'Grady HA! You hate manual, because you said "fucking manual"
And drifting/burnouts are gay!
An automated system that forces people into the right lane temporarily if they are going slow in the left.
very nice craft
