When it comes to tiny eco concept vehicles made for city driving, it’s easy to think they can’t offer much more than provide a ride from Point A to Point B—not so with the Urban Cruiser by Slovakian designer Michal Kukucka.
Kukucka’s Urban Cruiser offers extreme functionality. With a body made of aluminum foam and a water-resistant glass roof, the Urban Cruiser features airless tires—and wheels designed to clean themselves! The electric, battery-operated Urban Cruiser also provides you with information about its battery—such as the remaining battery level and how much longer the vehicle can travel—via a central control unit. Other details include USB ports and the ability to connect to social networking sites while driving. The space inside the car also provides room for storing things like baggage and other personal items, as well as a special casing to hold your laptop, describes EcoFriend.
