Designer/educator Chuck Pelly challenged the big automakers to a design competition with his Robocar 2057 event, the winner of which will be announced today at the LA Auto Show. The designs are so far-out that they can currently exist only on paper; Toyota's concept, top, runs on pollution and has wheels made of lasers, while VW's concept, bottom, ferries the driver around in an upright position, reclining when it's time to put the speed on. Click here for a rather amazing slideshow featuring entries by Audi, GM, Mercedes, and others.
