THE FUTURE ARRIVED TOO EARLY | The Forgotten 1958 Car With No Steering Wheel

What if we told you that back in 1958, General Motors created a car with no steering wheel? In this episode of The Exporter Journal, we dive into the incredible story of the legendary GM Firebird III — a futuristic concept car that looked more like a spaceship than an automobile. Featuring a joystick instead of a steering wheel, a turbine-powered engine inspired by jet aircraft, and early ideas for self-driving highways, the Firebird III shocked audiences at GM’s famous Motorama show and predicted technologies we still use today. Decades before autonomous driving, steer-by-wire systems, and advanced driver assistance became reality, this forgotten concept imagined the future of transportation with astonishing accuracy. Welcome to one of the wildest visions in automotive history. 🚗 Want to know what your car is REALLY worth?
