Super Cars of the Future: Inspiring Future thinking in Car Design

Love/Hate relationship with automobiles continues:

from Design Juices
I think we have all ambitions to own a super car in the future, maybe your even lucky enough to be close to reaching that ambition. Whether your after and old school american muscle car, or a new-wave carbon fibre body super car; we are all interested in the new technologies of making the car as sexy in its aesthetics and also as fast as possible.

Here I look to highlight and showcase several amazing concept (and possible production) super cars who are all using new technologies and new ways of designing the super car of the future.

SC Ultimate Aero 2

AMV-R
This design is the work of Alexei Mikhailov, it is almost a mis-mash of different styles; it encorporate both Italian and German design. It works with the pure italian fluid (almost) organic design and the German sports lines, which emphasise the overall quality of the cars design. Found on Tuvie.

Tesla EYE Concept
Considering there’s almost no chance we’ll ever see the EYE concept cruising the streets, we’ll just have to enjoy the car for what it is: a good-looking show car with a Tesla badge. Sure, we can imagine putting an electric powertrain in there and showing up at the soccer game in one of these, but for now we’ll just have to ask ourselves if the IED students managed to create a new status symbol with the EYE, something they said they were shooting for.
