Big Car for Chinatown

Big Car for Chinatown

The Taihoo 2046 Concept Car is intended for the 18-35 year old young couples in China, apparently the big spenders and lovers of all things flashy! Taihoo`s styling is inspired by the Taihu Stone, which is also a porous stone. Essentially combining the porous and transparent features into a super sexy design, has worked out pretty well for this car. One of the super cool features is that the interior design can easily transform to a camping tent and the windows are slightly curved so that you can project movies onto it. What fun!

Fashionable Commuting in Paris

Fashionable Commuting in Paris

The year is 2046, the city is Paris and the commuter is an urban electric share-a-car system where you take your pick and move on to your next destination. A clever portmanteau of Paris and personal, the 2046 Parsonal Commuter in Paris is an advertising option for companies as well as mode of common transportation for the urbanite. Offering a clean-green ride, each vehicle is fitted with ample space for carrying luggage in the boot. Huge windows to view the dazzle of stunning Parisian skylines and comfortable seating are the two prime winners. Love the sleek design and the choice of city!

Personal Pod

Personal Pod

The only word that describes traffic aptly is: BAD! Try this, ask your friend, partner or just anyone who uses a car…’how’s the traffic’, and like a chorus you will get only one reply: B A D. So what is the solution, do we buy fewer cars or use only public transportation? The debate and perceptions are endless! Till we come up with something concrete lets think about personalized commuting, where a traveler uses individual pods. The Folding Electric Vehicle is what I’m talking about.

Green Beast

Green Beast

An electric green shell. Bold, sporty, aggressive styling. Ultra-bright adaptive LED headlights. A super-flexible racing-style seat. Horsepower for days. These are just a few ways you might describe this sexy…. TRACTOR! (Gotcha!) But seriously, the T-Ractor concept is a modern, sporty twist on agricultural machinery that is a must-have in the driveway of every redneck!

2-N-1

2-N-1

The first of its kind, the 2Wheela is a concept vehicle that merges the practicality of super-compacts with the spaciousness of vans. Confused?! It’s actually 2 cars in 1! The modular system features 2 sporty looking cars that can be joined at the ends when you need the extra room or want to travel as a group. When it’s time to split, simply pull over, detach, and go your separate ways!

Purrrrfect Jag

Purrrrfect Jag

Inspired by the vintage Jag e-type of the 1960s, the Jaguar XKX concept finds a modern balance between pure muscle and supreme elegance. The design returns to the total smoothness of the brand’s original models with soft, fluid lines that dip and curve into one another like liquid. Vintage inspiration combined with highly advanced tech (I.E. – an outer skin that recharges the battery) make this one fierce kitty.

Eggcellent Electric Vehicle

Eggcellent Electric Vehicle

The City Egg by Tomasz Mikrut is a car-share concept designed to make getting around the city a cinch. The compact vehicle accommodates a single passenger enclosed in a 3-dimensional oval. Though it’s small, the natural egg shape supports weight evenly and minimizes stress and strain on the structure, making it as strong as it is cute!

Sports Pod of the Future

Sports Pod of the Future

Designed for 2025, the Fiat Prime City Car is a take on the ultra-compact personal pod of the future with a sporty aesthetic that’s geared toward the thrill seeker inside. A long list of technologies like drive by wire, brake by wire and steer by wire controls all aim to enhance the driving experience. The single seater (with a tad of space for groceries) positions the driver in the center, surrounded by a glass canopy that enhances the feeling of speed.

Exoskeletal EV

Exoskeletal EV

I’m not usually into super-compact cars but there’s no denying the draw to this unique beauty. The EXO concept is the result of a challenge to designers Mark Beccaloni & Mauro Fragiotta to create a minimal and compact yet realistically usable urban vehicle. Designed from the outside in, the external geodesic shape is not only aesthetically captivating, but provides serious strength to the structure.

BMW Exclusive

BMW Exclusive

Designer Sonny Lim can’t say for sure whether or not this is what we can expect the BMW i8 Spyder (set to be unveiled in 2014) to look like, but we’re going to trust that the former Senior Designer at BMW Designworks has a unique perspective. Wink Wink. It’s a bit more “foldy” than you’d expect from the brand, but nonetheless…  one very sexy ride.
