Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Honda Great Race 2025 Concept is Abnormally Advanced

— July 16, 2009 — Autos
I'm not sure how far the 'Transformer' idea will lead us, but apparently auto designers decided to make our future cars as incredible as possible.

The green Honda Great Race 2025 is a typical example. It looks exactly like those autobots, although it's even more creepy with the insect-like streamline. It’s not only for the ground either, but also the sea and the air. The car can switch to any configuration automatically, as it has sonar sensors which detect changes in speed and outside environment.

Mercedes-Benz’ Formula Zero Racer looks like a yacht with wheels, only more graceful. The white “yacht-car” has electric hub motors, solar skin and a high-tech rigid sail.

Happy racing!
