Design, sculpting and art are mixing with the technology in a brand new way, every year auto manufacturers unveiled the latest models of sports cars, sport utility vehicles, hybrids, trucks even motorcycles.
If you travel to an auto show you will see it's like a debutante ball for some of the newest designs and most advanced automotive technology, they are also where car designers revealed to the world, incredible ideas for the future.
Where else can you take a peek at concept dream machines like the super chic mercury messenger for the Chevrolet SS concept that looks like a modern-day hot rod, you might be asking yourself where can you buy one of these tricked-out fantasy cars? The answer, nowhere.
Why would an auto manufactures spend tens of millions of dollars to build something they'll never sell, well one because the fun and they need to test ideas to themselves the engineering value, to come up with something new and to make it better, they also need to test the idea to the public, they try to find out what the public or the people that are buying their cars and trucks think about the concept, does it make sense, do they really think the public is gonna embrace this new concept.
It's this huge experiment test that kinda get an idea for what people want, what they like and concept cars cover just about every emotion, you never want to stop smiling while you traveling than take a look at one of the craziest concept straight from Japan, if you think it looks like a box that's because it is, right now there's a trend among Toyota and Honda for coming out with boxes, coming out with cubes, it's kinda hop in this thing and bring all your stuff with you, if you're concerned that your next car might have to many blind spots open your eyes wide, almost every inch of this concept car is a window, it's designed for urban driving, small, electric power and when you finally get that hard to find parking space, just download your very own scooter to make getting around town quick and easy and if you're wondering when is this vehicle going to be put on the market lets just say your grandchildren might be lucky to take their drivers test in this thing.
This car may look strange but it is a bold step in a whole new era innovation, using Japanese cars are starting with Japanese they are just saying hey this mythical don't like a top, talk about taking chances? How about a car that not only interacts with you but has a motion too, meet the Toyota Park you steer it with the joystick just like a video game and that poking out the back it's not an antenna it's a tale and when you start it up it wax to show you it's ready to go, running out of gas the car's exterior lights turn blue, fill it up, gold panel with personalized interactive GPS you're gonna feel more like you're walking your dog, been driving a cold piece of steel, these cars are cute and fun but who would want to buy it and why.
So whether you love it or you think it's just plan weird almost every concept cars going to make you take notice and that's exactly what car makers want, and that risk-taking is ultimately about making auto manufacturer recognizable and successful, so if Japanese car-makers have mastered the art of designing concepts that are all about total fun then take a look at one automaker that wrote the book on total performance, everybody has heard of them, Mercedes Benz founded in 1924 this legendary German car-maker has always strive for high-end luxury and cutting-edge performance that keeps the driver in mind, especially in this car, you want something no one else can drive, something just for you? Then hop in to this strange-looking moon shop, the F 300 like rocket, it may look like one of the most insensible cars you've ever seen but what it's done for the technology of driving is invaluable.
