The Cadillac World Thorium Fuel Vehicle concept car was designed by Loren Kulesus. When all the talk is about hybrids and electric automobiles Kulesus suggests nuclear energy. In theory the car is to run on a  thorium based nuclear battery system, generating surplus energy from the 24 wheels it rolls on.  The energy gained could be used for other purposes - like supplying the neighborhood with power or to recharge miscellaneous devices. The car would need its wheels adjusted every five years. No other maintenance required.
