You could still see the wheels.

Cant crash that. They'll just think its some distortion that should be avoided.

Not unless the driver is drunk or unattentive (however that is spelt)

Yes can crash into this easily. The visibility is that matters while driving. The less you're visible the greater chance you've got someone will crash into you. Tell why do they have you take vision exam when applying for driver licence?

 

From practical (safety) point of view this 'invisible' car is pretty much useless, regardless how it may appeal to some folks.

Completely Missing the Point

It's just an ad campaign for a zero emission engine ("invisible to nature").

The car probably never drove further then from one side of the camera to the other.

Besides, the LED covering was just on one side anyway as you can see at around 1:15. On the other side the cameras are fixed.

You know I really didn't even watch the full video only skimmed through it. Zero emission engine doesn't exist unless it runs on pure air.

Depends on how you want to see it. And manufacturers always present their products in the best possible light. So a hydrogen cell engine that essentially runs on water is a "zero emission" engine, no matter how much energy has been wasted to split that water into hydrogen and oxygen. ;)
