No, this isn't the real-life car of George Jetson. It's the 1960 Pininfarina X, a futuristic concept from the famous Italian design house for a four-door saloon with three wheels and an aerodynamically shaped body that was said to achieve a drag coefficient of 0,23.

Geneva's Pininfarina Alfa Romeo 2uettottanta: Funny Name, Seriously Cool Spider Replacement

Alfa reps have said that both concepts are exactly that -- concepts; as in, not gonna be built. However, rumors (and hopes) have been circling of a possible Duetto revival, and from the looks of things Pininfarina is doing its damnedest to get its take on the idea at the very least fan-approved.
