We have noticed many advances in vehicles these days. One area that will likely be a part of the future are personal underwater vehicles. It has been some time since new prototypes have arose in this arena.
Back in the 1977's a movie called "The Spy Who Loved Me", featured Wet Nellie (as the vehicle was dubbed on-set) that was appeared to be on the right track although it doesn't function as a car. Instead, a Lotus Esprit shell houses a functioning wet submarine built by the since-closed-down submersible manufacturer Perry Oceanographics — a conversion that cost around US$100,000, which is approximately US$500,000 today.
Surely, mass production would reduce these costs. Since the planet is mostly water, I can image there will surely be a need.
