Michelin Challenge Design 2011 is home to some of the craziest and coolest concept cars around. For proof of that statement, look no further than the ING-Q concept car. The ING-Q comes to you courtesy of Chinese automotive design student Xiaowu Huang, a designer with a passion for eco-friendly and futuristic autos.
Huang's ING-Q is a bipedal pod car designed for one occupant. The parts that make up this pod car are designed to be modular and simple, which should help cut down on costly repair bills from the mechanic. Cars continue to become smaller and smaller, meaning it's only a matter of time until everyone is riding around in pod cars like the ING-Q concept car. The future has arrived.
