The Royal College of Art turns 40 years of existence next year and their fame will be honored by the graduates of their vehicle design program who are one the best in the world. As everything in the future should be green, they decided to design green and sustainable concepts for the cars of the future.
Although the cars are very futuristic and they look like they will destroy the environment, all the concepts will feature energy efficient engines with few emission and also they will be made of glass which will allow them to be very aerodynamic.
RCA unveiled these cutting-edge cars that look like rockets and one of them is kind of a combination between a motorcycle and a sidecar. One of the best designs is the Airflow concept which was envisioned by Pierre Sabas and it will feature an exterior made of glass, ultra-weight materials and an electric engine.
Another impressive concept car is Nuaero which was designed by Jon Radbrink and it will be based on airfoils for aerodynamics, also a venturi-tunnel, and an underbody inspired by a catamaran.
Other designs include Sergio Loureiro Da Silva’s Pheonix, Nereus concept by Ceri Yorath, a concept car from Ilaria Sacco, Joonas Vartola’s really attractive Iomega, Noah concept by Jung Hoon Rhee, Enigma concept by Paul Howse (one of my favorites) and a concept car from Yunwoo Jeong.
I was about to forget about a design by Arturo Peralta Nogueras which consists of a car that runs on algae and which uses evolving solid hologram technology in order to adapt to the environment and passengers. Check out the photos tell us which one is your favorite!
they remind me of sneakers =)
what about fat people?
Its amazing how one can come up with fantastic designs, but can one put all thats needed into those designs to make it work properly. like what a vehicle needs to drive fully functional? and safely or safety
What the fuck is the last one supposed to be?
Who the fuck cares about fatties, they should be running not driving……..fattie
How is a car made entirely of glass going to be even remotely safe?
In the future - we still use wheels. How lame.
nice collection, thanks for sharing.

Why change the design so radically? whats the advantage?
Glass can be safer then almost any other material:
*It won’t burn. Even if there is a fire in the bonnet
*I’m not sure what kind of glass they would use but they could make it so that the front could shatter and then it will get more solid so if a crash occours then it will stop befor it reaches you ( unlike metal which crumples )
*It would also deal with pressure better and has unlimited possibility for personalization of your car.
And thats how it can be safe
theses are the weirdest car i’ve ever seen!!!!!!!! but cool!!!11111
All these cars ride too low to the ground only a few could make it over a speed bump. also, the wheels don’t look very normal, airless tires are still a really bumpy ride, and there is no room for the wheels to move. very original designs but i understand why they are not in production.
sergio is my BFF and he is soooo sexy like da car
You know,you all can always give me one.
wat what year are these cars goin to be at????year hello
can ya TELL us da year and the last car ish my car
the last 1 isnt even a car
wat about privacy and not being noticed if cops are trying to find you and vice versa? that wnt help being made out of glass
all glass??… no back seat privacy!!
they could make glass that changes from see-throug to not-see-throug. just by pressing a button))) that would be cool
