Meet the McLaren Short Tail: A race car small enough to parallel park - Yanko Design
Briefly

Joshua Roberts designed the McLaren Short Tail concept, providing a compact version of McLaren’s sporty aesthetics. The design features a glass bubble cockpit that enhances visibility and offers a unique driving experience. Sitting in the center, the driver is essentially enveloped by the vehicle. The aerodynamic design resembles a street-legal spaceship, improving efficiency and speed. The car's name pays homage to McLaren’s racing history while innovating on the idea of a single-seat sports car for personal enjoyment during commutes.
The glass bubble cockpit gives me serious jet fighter vibes, like McLaren raided Lockheed Martin's parts bin when nobody was looking.
Roberts has basically created a street-legal spaceship where the driver sits dead center like the McLaren F1 of old.
The whole single-seat approach is gloriously selfish too - this is a car that unapologetically says, 'My commute is MY time.'
The entire car looks like it's moving at 200mph while parked, which is exactly what a McLaren should do.
