Cars, Concept

I like things that defy categorization. Things designed by people thinking about purpose rather than trying to fit a market.

from wikipedia:

Nissan is stepping into the "carlet" arena with this cute little EV that has a range of 60 miles and a max speed of 50mph.

Introduced at the 2008 NY International Auto Show, the 2009 Nissan Denki Cube is as practical as it is fun!

This beautiful concept by Jaguar will probably never be built, but I'm sure there will be people screaming for one.

It's a hybrid that primarily uses its four, hub mounted electric motors. When that runs out, you have access to the power of two gas turbine engines mounted mid-ship. The large air intakes on the lower sides feed the turbines. The turbines can power the vehicle, or can be used to charge the batteries.

In 2011 the future will bring the BMW Concept ActiveE - an innovative electric vehicle based on the BMW 1 Series Coupe this is completely suitable for everyday use and is equipped with characteristic BMW driving dynamics and zero emissions.
