I came here to post that, well done, well done!Honda FCX Clarity should be on that list.
Fuel cells in general.
Seems like we're so close to some big breakthroughs on those and battery tech, but just not there yet. Of course any tech will take probably a good 5-10 years to get into production on any meaningful scale.
I'm actually surprised they didn't put lasers, as that's being looked into for replacing spark plugs as well as lighting.
Lower cylinder counts, bad!
I like the countermeasures thing though.

You're completely right. The last "breakthrough" was lithium based batteries, which have been around for years. Everything since has been evolutionary.From what the media has said we've been "close to a breakthrough" on those for decades. I'll believe the it when I see it.
Highly doubtful. Highly.hope to multiply lithium-ion energy density by a factor of  two to three while halving cost.
Carbon fiber wheels have been around in motorcycling for a while now. This technology really makes sense in motorcycles and lightweight performance cars... average sedans and trucks, not so much.
I think wireless charging is more or less irrelevant, since no meaningful number of electric cars will be around for a while.
