That's the version of the Jetsons Hanna-Barbera didn't have the balls to make. In the original version of the intro, George has a car that folds up into a briefcase-sized object, light as a feather. In the alternate universe version, it just keeps folding, then small enough that it just flies right up George's ass. No need to carry it around. When you need it, you call to it, and it flies out and unfolds. It stays clean due to future tech. And it's been done for so long it's just socially considered normal. In the alternate Jetsons future, people just carry their cars right up their asses.
