Top 30 Eco Transportation Trends in October

From Electric Solar RVs to Futuristic Carsharing

— October 28, 2017 — Autos
From electric dump trucks and waste-based jet fuels to single-pedal electric cars and autonomous shuttle buses for seniors, the top October 2017 eco transportation ideas explore the many ways that current staples are being redesigned for a more sustainable future.

On a small scale, foldable electric skateboards are being introduced for the environmentally conscious urbanite, while concepts like Dethleffs' e.home are examining the ways that families may travel in the future in spacious, solar-powered, all-electric motorhomes. Other notable innovations include the self-driving Robot Shuttle, which is currently being used to transport the eldery in rural Japan – just in time for the annual Nishikata rice harvest.

To show off the fact that electric vehicles do not compromise on speed, Jaguar introduced an all-electric race series that has drivers compete for the Jaguar I-Pace eTrophy.
