Lamborghini has created the world's first self-healing sports car. The Terzo Millennio, which translates as third millennium in Italian, has the ability to detect and repair cracks in its body work.
Using sensors the car can conduct its own health check to detect any damages and self-repair itself by filling the crack with nanotubes to prevent it spreading.
The super car was created in collaboration with researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Boston. ...
The all-electric car is powered by supercapacitors rather than conventional batteries. ...
Each of the car's wheels includes its own integrated electric engine that glow as you drive.

My 57 Bel Air already fixes itself. It just screams for attention until someone (me) fixes it.
I’ll be glad to do a review on it for them. 8>)
A 57 Bel Air will dent shopping carts.
You’re suggesting that the Lamborghini people next build a self-healing shopping cart?
At my age, that is what is porn to me...........Wow

DOD really looking into this for airplanes, drones.
Seriously?
You’re singing to the choir.....and at only $3 million, we should all have one!

Suddenly the word “cockpit” makes a lot of sense.
