Scarab
This reminds of the ride Wesley Snipes drove in the movie "DEMOLITION MAN"... You know the movie where he and sylvester Stallone were frozen and then they were revived in the future. Yeahh that movie. Remember the scene where he wooped all the police officers outside?
The world is getting to crowded, so we definetly don't need more hummers in the streets. What we need is the Scarab. More PICS AND INFO INSIDE.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
VEHICLE:
- The vehicle allows users to have freedom of use much like a motorcycle but with the convenience of having an enclosed private space and luggage compartments.
- The vehicle can be operated in several different positions depending on speed. It is parked vertically for easy ingress and egress and optimization of public space. When in speed position, the vehicle also tilts when curving or changing direction.
- When circulating in dedicated pathways, the SCARAB is controlled by a centralized computer or by a traffic management centre. Outside of the dedicated pathways the SCARAB is controlled by the user just like any other vehicle.
VEHICLE SPECS:
-The vehicle is composed of interchangeable modules that can be customized by the potential buyer/user.
-Powerpack module composed of a permanent battery plus 3 options for the main energy pack (battery, biofuel ICE or a fuel cell).
-4 wheel drive through electric brushless in-wheel motors with directdrive.
-Wheels with regenerative braking through EW Brakes.
-Drive by wire and tactile HUD embedded in the Lexan canopy.
-Structural elements in Carbon-Aramid composite.
-Embedded sensors, Lidar, radar, transponders, GPS. These serve to exchange information with the system, with other drivers and to have precise location data.
INFRASTRUCTURE:
-Communication nodes spread through roadways and traffic management centres in major conurbations.
-Dedicated paths with electromagnetic transponders embedded in the road.
-Parking facilities with solar/wind power generators.
-High speed/long distance travel provided through a railroad interface (not yet developed). Thanks to Tuvie.com
SYSTEM:
-Renting of the vehicle or modules that allows for a private/public/mixed utilization and transport access for people with less financial resources.
-Doesn’t need new infrastructures (uses the existing roads).
-Is backward compatible with current transport systems and uses current day technologies.

LIFT Car Concept
HANG YOUR CAR IN THE PARKING LOT.
"This car has been designed for people who suffer from inadequate parking space in their area. Now the time has to come to day goodbye to parking lots and get ready to say hello to hang outs. This stylish LIFT car concept can adjust itself in the aerial parking without demanding any extra space. Once you are done with your work, you can just drop it down and simply drive home."

Ferrari Zobin Concept
Come check it out. "The single seater model is clearly inspired by Ferrari's Formula 1 car. Its dimensions suggest it is quite a compact model with a length that measures 4.114 meters and a width of 1.855 meters – rougly the size of the Caparo T1. Exterior design focuses on giving the front end an F1 type ”open wheels” look. It features a quite unique structure with a metal band that wraps around the wheels, holding the headlights and also integrating the front spolier. The engine is placed in the mid-rear position for weight distribution efficiency." Worldcarfans.com
WOULDN'T MIND HAVING THAT IN MY GARAGE, WHEN I HAVE A GARAGE!

Hopefully I'm Alive When a Concept Like This One Is No Longer a Concept
Introducing Opel Siderium.
The coolest features of this is not the exteriors but what lies inside. All The Seat are customizable, The seats can be adjusted in different ways to make the driver or the passenger more comfortable as they drive to their destination.
