Mazda Kazamai

Mazda Kazamai  » image 2

Mazda presents yet another concept car. This time it’s called Kazamai which means “swirling crosswinds” in Japanese. The concept is based on Mazda’s long-term vision for technology development, Sustainable Zoom-Zoom, which aims to provide a unique balance between sporty driving fun and superior environmental and safety performance. Kazamai will be joined at MIAS by the Russian debut of Mazda’s CX-9 SUV, which was crowned 2008 North American Truck of the Year in February.

Human-Powered River Gymnasiums

Human-Powered River Gymnasiums » image 2

The River Gym concept is a human-powered floating gym that will provide the user with the one experience that no other gym can provide: floating your workout around Manhattan. Designed by architect Mitchell Joachim and personal trainer Douglas Joachim, this project could bring inspiration to both the morning commute and workout.

The concept is actually quite simple - harness all that human locomotion into energy to propel vessels along the Hudson and East Rivers, to several points across the city.

Jaambaaro pedal car

Jaambaaro pedal car » image 1

In many developing countries, ambulances aren’t readily available to bring injured people to medical centers. With that in mind, Benoit Angibaud designed the Jaambaaro, a pedal-powered ambulance that’s designed to help people in rural Africa transport the sick or injured to get medical attention.

The Jaambaaro is literally a pedal-car with a stretcher, driven by two persons pedaling and assisted by electrical power generated from solar energy. Made of salvaged materials, and will hopefully fuel the local economy through localized manufacturing, thus making this vehicle not only sustainable but also fun for the kids.

Murciélago LP640 Roadster

Murciélago LP640 Roadster » image 10

Lamborghini have extended their partnership with Versace by releasing a Versace edition Murciélago LP640 Roadster. The Lamborghini Versace edition Murciélago LP640 Roadster is very similar to the previous Versace edition Murciélago LP640 but is of course a roadster and features the signature Versace Greek Key motif on the front bumper and the lower part of the doors. The interior is black and white nappa leather and also features the Greek Key Motif embossed into the seats

This machine is HOT! It has a certain raw sex appeal that only two sets of Italians can deliver. Versace tastefully applied their signature Versace Greek Key motif in all the right places making for a nearly perfect marriage of the Capulets and the Montagues, let’s hope no one dies this time around.

Antro Solo Solar Hybrid Car

Antro Solo Solar Hybrid Car » image 1

The Antro Solo from Hungary is a gas-electric hybrid car with a unique power arrangement that also utilizes solar energy.

While the Antro Solo is obviously in the prototype phase, many of its technologies are fascinating. To keep weight low, it’s built entirely out of carbon fiber and composites. The engine is a gas-electric hybrid with a twist. A large array of roof-mounted photo-cells can charge the battery to extend the EV range. The Solo comes with pedals that each passenger can crank in order to charge the battery.

Clever Concept

Clever Concept » image 2

CLEVER stands for Compact Low Emissions Vehicle for Urban Transport. This TRON-esque 3 wheeled wonder is about 10 ft long, 3.3 ft wide and 4.4 feet high and weighs 870lbs.

The wheelbase is 2450 mm, the track width is 835 mm. At the front there is a 17″ wheel whilst at the rear there are two 18″ wheels. As a result of its low width the vehicle is designed to tilt when cornering and has a computer-controlled hydraulic rolling system which results in a driving experience with zero lateral forces at tilting angles of up to 45°, similar to riding a motorcycle.

Designed by Jake Loniak, a student at the Art Center in Pasedena for Yamaha.

The Yamaha Deus Ex Machina exoskeleton is an immensely futuristic-looking, single person’s stand-up vehicle created by Jake Loniak, a student at the Art Center Pasadena.

“The vehicle is powered by ultra-capacitors and doped nano-phoshpate batteries (similar to the ones currently used in hybrid cars) and it is controlled using 36 pneumatic muscles with two linear actuators set along a spine consisting of seven artificial vertebrae,” Gizmodo explains. “Even the helmet is pneumatically attached.”

The Uno Motorcycle

The Uno is a segway/motorcycle mashup. Technically it has two wheels, but they’re right next to each other and it does balance on them under its own power.
