Tags: amphibian, car, hybrid, Pathfinder, sailing vessel, vehicle

Amphibious vehicles continue to wow the masses and make them yearn to own one. The thought of driving a vehicle through the streets of the city and straight into sea remain one of the most fantasised concepts when it comes to vehicle freaks. The Pathfinder takes all your dreams and makes them a reality. This hybrid vehicle is a car that transforms into a sailing vessel at the touch of a button.

The Pathfinder features four motors fitted in the four wheels. The hydrogen fuel powered vehicle is also eco-friendly because it can run on solar energy via the retractable solar powered roof and can also use wind energy as it sails over the seas. A jet drive feature for extra thrust is also included. The Pathfinder can comfortably house three people and includes a kitchen and bathroom. Too bad this cool amphibian still remains a concept.

Lexus Nuaero: Futuristic Car by Jon RÃ¥dbrink

Tags: car, DBW, drive by wire, electrical car, futuristic, Jon RÃ¥dbrink, Lexus Nuaero, multipoint touchscreen

The aerial view of it makes it appear like the BatMobile, a side view makes it look like a darker version of the pod that Superman arrived on earth in, and checking it out from the front will just simply make your jaws drop down in drooling wonder. That is the effect that the Lexus Nuaero has on most people. This sleek black-shined concept car has been designed by Jon RÃ¥dbrink to appear futuristic enough to knock your eyeballs out.

Even the features of the Lexus Nuaero are futuristic as RÃ¥dbrink has eliminated steering wheel, opting instead for a drive by wire system with multi-point touch screen. The feet pedals have been thrown away and the breaking mechanism works by applying pressure on the steering wheel. The car is powered by electrical motors and is low weight which would help increase the mileage. This 14.5ft car will hopefully make it to the market, if only for the mind-blowing design if not for the features.

Moller M400 Skycar will Take to the Roads and Skies!

Tags: aircraft, car, chopper, flying car, Moller, Moller M400 Skycar, transformers, vehicle, VTOL

Imagine speeding past all those other lowly vehicles on the road in your brand new and bright red shiny car and then, just to show off to that bald-headed guy in the sports car, you press a button and voila! your car begins to rise into the sky, flying. The Moller M400 Skycar works much like the Transformers, morphing from car one minute into an aircraft the next moment. Moller describes the M400 Skycar as feasible and personally affordable VTOL (that’s Vertical Take Off and Landing for the non-geeks).

The Moller M400 Skycar works like a chopper, being able to rise vertically upward from the ground, except that it can also be driven on the road. It can run on various types of fuel, from natural gas to diesel. With multiple ducted fans, the Moller M400 Skycar makes the slightest of noise, assuring that you can take this babe out for a drive-cum-flight any time you feel like it. Although it can only touch 20mpg on ground, in the air the M400Skycar can go three times faster than a light chopper. If marketed, the Moller M400 Skycar would be sold between £30,000 to £250,000, depending on whether it generates enough desire for mass production.
