The December 2021 eco transportation concepts and designs aim to reduce carbon emissions as the effects of climate change continue to impede our planet's future. This month's compilation of innovations features products that focus on today's world concerns, from hygienic car concepts to zero-emission sailboats.
The Hyundai SEVEN SUV, for example, was created in response to the COVID-19 crisis. The concept electric vehicle is outfitted equipped with a Hygiene Air Flow system to separate the front and back sections, avoiding cross-contamination of the air.
Another noteworthy innovation is the zero-emission sailing cargo ship that transports coffee beans from South America to its roasting plant in Sherbrooke, Quebec. Backed by Café William, the eco-conscious sailboat facilitates eco endeavors across the food and beverage industries.
