With the Second World War coming to a close, the economy started to boom in the U.S. thanks to a massive increase in consumer spending, subsequently leading to more funds being pumped into countless different industries. the automotive industry was one that saw some of the biggest growth, and with all eyes on the future, some truly staggering concept cars were developed to represent what people could expect in the coming decades. The concept cars designed in these two post-war decades were heavily inspired by other industries that also benefited from technological advancements. The space and aviation industries were the two that saw incredible progress, finding their way into almost every element of concept cars. The most prominent inspiration was tailfins, which were used to emulate the look of rockets, which at the time were the most impressive feat of engineering. Alongside the design of these cars, what actually powers them was another area that was able to be explored further. Here are 10 of the era-defining concept cars from the ‘50s and ‘60s.
