Using Moore’s law, the internal combustion engine car in the next 30 years will be relegated to buggy whip status.

Complete and utter horse hockey. Moore's Law depends solely on geometry shrink, which depend on the laws of physics. Chip sizes do not have to contend with Carnot's Law, or indeed almost any thermodynamics save heat dissipation. The heat engine is limited by Carnot's Law and the materials from which it is made.

You speak as someone who has had no science or engineering training, but is merely an enthusiast.

Not at all.

I have in mind technological innovation.

Things people thought were outlandish are becoming practical with every advance in manufacturing knowledge and know-how.

What happened to computer processors is equally applicable to cars.
