According to PickupTrucks.com Apparently, Exec Producer Gary Scott Thompson and his production team went to Microsoft to help with determining what the future of automobiles looks like. Microsoft, other than focusing on a future where every car comes with Sync and owners pay $100 upgrade fees each year for new Sync XP software updates, came up with the idea of having it shift forms as long as it keeps the same mass.

While many might still groan at a GT500KR that can transform on-the-fly into an F-150, Thompson talked to futurists at Microsoft to find some grounding in reality. Their meetings discussed what cars and trucks might be like in 2030. “They (Microsoft futurists) talked about vehicles being able to maneuver between smaller spaces, meaning it would have to squeeze itself, or it would grow larger or grow bigger wheels to get over a large obstacle. I thought, ‘Wow, if these guys are already thinking about this now, then we need to be looking at this.
It looks like KITT’s new off-road program will become a regular part of Knight Rider. Thompson says we’ll see it in two of the first four episodes. There might be other modes on the horizon, too. “As long as we stay within about the same mass, you might see other versions of KITT,” says Thompson. “You’re not, however, going to see it turn into a huge spaceship,” Thompson tells us.
