Some of these concept cars showed off features and designed that made it into later year models – the 1997 Nissan Hypermini looks very much like the Smart Car that made it into production in 2000, and even some of the wilder cars, like the 1999 Honda Fuya-Jo shows a boxy, tank-like design that brings to mind the Nissan Cube.
Even so, some of these concept cars are Jetsons-level out there, including the 1993 Mazda London Taxi (which looks like the car Homer Simpson designed), the 1987 Daihatsu TA-X80, and the 1969 Toyota EX-II (which also brings to mind the Smart Car… which makes me wonder if maybe these things have a 30-year or so time from concept to production…)
