Hanadi Salem: #Nanotech Cars are Safer, Glossier, More Durable In addition to enhancing durability, studies have shown that nanotechnology will soon become an essential part of the automotive industry in the future. A global study titled NanoCar, conducted by Helmut Kaiser Consultancy, examined and forecasted the changes in the automotive industry in 2008, 2010 and 2015 through the integration of nanotechnology in 70 leading car manufacturers worldwide. It concluded that, in 10 years, the design and manufacture of cars, trucks, buses and other vehicles would be affected by nanotechnology by up to 60 percent based on miniaturization, lighter and stronger materials, and new energy systems. It also showed that almost all parts of a vehicle could benefit from nanotechnology, from the engine, transmission system, suspension, brakes and chassis to the mirrors, side panels, tires and paint.
