Holden Hurricane
In 1969 Holden revealed its Hurricane concept car boasting technology which has modern, mainstream cars playing catch-up more than four decades later. Features included a reversing camera, a digital dashboard display and a route guidance system – although it used magnets in the road rather than the modern GPS affair.
Entry to the 39-inch-tall concept came via an electro-mechanical canopy, which pivoted forwards to reveal the two seats, that in turn rose to 'greet' the soon-to-be occupants.
Once cocooned inside, the drama changed from visual to aural as the mid rear-mounted 4.2-litre (262hp) V8 burbled into life.
Occupants were kept safe by the inertia-reel seatbelts, and comfortable by the climate control system.
