We have seen the future, and it is sticky. This is the Peugeot Metromorph concept, a smart extension of those building-scaling cars from Minority Report.

It's the brainchild of Roman Mistiuk, a design student at the Academy of Art University, and here's how it works: the concept seats two, and runs flat along the road like a computer mouse.

Until, that is, you reach the outside of your futuristic apartment block - in the future, everyone will live in futuristic apartment blocks - when it flips the seats through 90 degrees and scuttles up the side of the building to your futuristic bay window. Upon reaching said window, it will dock and the floor will mysteriously open, allowing easy ingress to your pad.

Smart, eh? Not only does it save you the effort of catching a lift with that sweaty bloke who doesn't appear to have discovered anti-perspirant, but the Metromorph also negates the need for street-side parking spaces.

It's powered, said Mistiuk, by a pair of in-wheel electric motors, though there's no word on how it'll stick to the side of the building. An enormous number of very, very secure future-magnets, we're hoping - you don't want your balcony attachment/city runabout to become an impromptu rollercoaster ride, too...
