LITTY – Futuristic Electro Car By Anton Shabramov

This fully electric two-wheel car will manage to solve a lot of problems with the kind of advantages it offers. LITTY comes wedged with a small electric motor that powers the car and is positioned at the back of the chairs. Electricity used for charging the car can be derived from wind farms or solar panels on roof of the car. The cute coupe ranks high on the safety graph. It has laser navigation sensors, which avoids any chances of accident on the road while driving. While moving the car can easily communicate with other vehicles on the road with the help of online satellite navigation, which keeps the driver safe and keeps possibilities of accidents at bay.

The two load-bearing wheels of LITTY fully support the car. The vehicle has been devoid of steering wheels and pedals. They have been replaced by a few buttons and a joystick which literally make it a one hand drive. The eco-friendly coupe will not add any poisonous gases or emissions to the already polluted surroundings. It comes with a pledge to keep the environment clean and green.

The skin of LITTY has been carved out of carbon fiber that is quite strong and solar panels can be fitted on it. The car is not short on the entertainment slot as it has two speakers which will play music of your choice. It also has a touch screen monitor and washer glass button.

LITTY is an environment friendly electro car conceot which can be used both on and off campus. This futuristic vehicle with attractive looks will prove to be blissful in modern times.

DUNO Electric Car By Ben Herron

What if there was an intriguing concept that fused both the forms and advantages of a car and a cycle? It may seem revolutionary to some, while it is quirky for others. However, the truth of the matter is it’s not that far-fetched because vehicle designer Ben Herron has exactly done that with his exclusively unique DUNO concept. The concept, in the designer’s own words, is a part electric car and a part unicycle!


Everything about this petite vehicle has been meticulously planned to the core, starting from the energy efficient and low emission mode of the ride to the flexibly adaptable car features for optimum comfort. Aimed at urban commuters, the distinctive feature that really does stand out is its two detachable unicycles, which actually replace the back wheels.

The car as a whole will conform to a compact form, which makes it easy to spurt through the congested city streets, and also considerably lessens the delirium of our everyday parking woes. And when the situation gets even worse, you can just separate those electric unicycles, and gingerly scoot your way to work. The designer even envisages a complete system where the vehicles can be recharged with an under-car charging component installed at the parking spaces.

The all-electric two-seater will feature a sturdy 80 hp engine, with a range of 100 km. The compactness is rather accentuated upon by the vertical door opening systems. Additionally, the car will also have a reversible interior (where one can switch from right hand drive to left hand drive) and interior indicators in the doors and wheels. At last coming to the other component, i.e. the unicycle, it will incorporate a recharging system powered by pedaling. Moreover, the minimalist form will take up nominal storage space. Therefore, if you want to make an unconventionally appealing ‘green’ statement, this is surely the way to go.

Electric Motorcycle By Matthew Law

Personal electric vehicles and motorcycles have always struggled to capture the ordinary masses’ attention as they are in their formative years yet. Many designers have come up with realistic ideas and promises of electric motor performances that are suited for road and race tracks both. Here is a futuristic design by Matthew Law, who does not simply add an electric battery to a conventional exotic sports bike, but instead designs a retro-futuristic, steam-punk style motorbike that uses modern manufacturing technology and looks as the bikes of future – say year 2020.


The inspiration for this model comes from various backgrounds. The linear elements are designed after cafe racers and retro motorcycles. The “hunched look” of the bike is inspired from the current street fighters. There is a block on the side of the bike for battery storage. You’ll find a cylinder holder underneath which holds a high power motor. When the motorcycle rides on high speeds, the side ribs light up emitting bright light.

Nimbell Electric City Tractor

The Electric City Tractor project was all about designing a conceptual city tractor, which works entirely on electricity. A team of entrepreneurs at the Chalmers School of Entrepreneurship worked on the concept and developed it. Eventually, it was used by Nimbell Motors to get investors for their company. According to the team members, ensuring perfect balance between the eco friendliness of the tractor and its credibility was a tough task. After comprehensive user studies and complete understanding of ergonomics, a life size mock-up was built. The design team which in totality had eight members was bifurcated, with each team having four members each. The work load was evenly divided, with one team handling the interiors and the other being responsible for the exterior expressions.


Every person who owns a farm knows the importance of using electric tractors. However, if you are going to buy a tractor, then initially you may be only concerned about the budget, the type of work you need to do with the tractor, how much land you need to work and in which months of the year you will be using your tractor. After being satisfied with all these parameters you really get concerned about how much energy-efficient and environmentally friendly your tractor is. But this mindset needs to be changed. As the time is progressing, so is the technology, making our machines more nature friendly. The Nimbell Electric City Tractor is certainly a step forward toward ensuring sustainable development, which is the need of the hour.

Zeleritas Concept Car By Willie Tay

The Zeleritas electric racing concept by designer Willie Tay combines current & future driving technologies with hard styling into a single passenger roadster with a straight-from-the-track feel. A monocoque carbon fiber body, retractable glass hard top, & exposed wheels give it an Indy car edge while modern features like the HUD active matrix windscreen, paramagnetic body paint, & discreet integrated lights enhance both the visual and driving experiences. One of the most attractive racing designs I’ve seen since the Ford Indigo.

Sunbeam Tiger Concept By Ryan Skelley

With the advancements in the field of batteries and electric motors, new transportation concepts are popping up, promising high performance and stylish design. The new “Sunbeam Tiger Concept” is another concept that can answer the question raised on the performance and speed of electric cars as compared to other vehicles. The concept was designed as a part of final year project of Coventry University’s design course by Ryan Skelley. It’s a two-seater lightweight vehicle powered by a lithium-titanate battery pack. That means a zero emission engine with better performance.


If you remember, the Sunbeam Tiger holds the land speed record achieved in 1925. This new concept can be considered as a rebirth of its previous version. Theoretically, the vehicle can achieve a 0-60 mph speed in 2.3 seconds and can go up to an electronically limited 160mph top speed. Once the battery is fully charged, which will take 4 hours with an optional charger, the Sunbeam can take you up to 800 miles. It’s not at all a bad performance for an electric car.

A zero emission engine is not the only factor that makes this ride environmentally friendly, but even the materials used in construction also include eco-friendly material. Recycled aluminum makes the chassis that also features integrated rollover protection for the user. Body panels are made from hemp fiber and are eco-painted as well. Further, making it more ethical, the design incorporates an interior made from soy foam seats covered with natural bio-fabric.
Wait, it wasn’t the last eco-friendly feature; lastly we have tires made up of cornstarch and natural fiber for the brake pads. Honestly, if this concept ever hits the road, it will be a green landmark.

EDWARD – Electric Diwheel With Active Rotation Damping (Video)

Mechanical engineering students at the University of Adelaide have succeeded in creating an electric Diwheel driven through a joystick. It’s called Edward (Electric Diwheel With Active Rotation Damping). Though it is designed traditionally with a frame and a suspension between the wheels, Edward is a step ahead than other diwheels in the past as it is completely electric. Moreover, because of its inbuilt dynamic lateral stability and the slosh control, gerbiling effect might be controlled; but, it is still in question.


It would be certainly fun to travel in such a vehicle that not only helps you to cover distances, but also gives you a joy ride. The diwheel has a special inversion control that allows you to drive upside down and its five point racing harness prevents the driver from falling out. For those who love to travel in a bicycle or an electric vehicle, Edward isn’t a bad option really. Even the speed of maximum 40 kph sounds fine. How much will it cost is currently unavailable, but sooner or later we can hope for a smooth and fun form of transportation.
