Futuristic Vehicle at the Michelin Challenge Design Showcase (7)

Designers Sang-Jun Lee, Seoung-Bin Lee and Kyung-Kuk Kim have come up with a very innovative car concept specially designed for the 2011 Michelin Challenge Design Showcase. This striking automobile design is the answer to a pretty challenging question: what would the ideal organism, evolved to perfectly adapt to the urban jungle, look like?

The first thing that crossed our minds when we saw the concept was: where is the engine? The organically shaped body of the car is very impressive indeed, but it has no room for motorization. The answer to our question was simple and it caught our imagination: each of the four wheels holds inside its own reactive electric motor. We are truly fascinated by this vehicle.
