The Opel Icona Concept Cars is a design study of a futuristic amphibian electric vehicle with a sporty design and retracteable wheels. Keeping such scenario in mind, Swedish designer Juan Pablo Bernal P has designed a futuristic vehicle for the year 2050 that moves on both land and water with equal efficiency. Called the “OPEL ICONA,” the V-shaped commuter vehicle features an aerodynamic body to ensure minimal air resistance for better performance in all conditions. The V shaped dynamic design uses distinctive shapes, forms, patterns and proportions which are express the sporty and leisure-oriented character of the vehicle.

Running on natural sources of energy, the all-electric vehicle generates power from electric motors to allow a clean and green drive. The zero-emission car would not only allow a sustainable drive but also become a means of entertainment to create a special bond between the family members as well as society.

The Opel Amphibian Sport Cars Icona Concept is a hybrid car that can traverse land and sea is nothing new despite being the stuff of dreams at least half a century ago, but this concept cars takes things to a whole new level. It can transport an adult and a child. The Opel Icona project was developed in collaboration with Opel by Juan Pablo Bernal at the Umea Institute of Design, Sweden.

Opel Amphibian Sport Cars Icona Concept features two modes of operation Viz. Land mode and Water Mode to run on ground and water respectively. When the vehicle runs on the ground the sail remains wrapped in the storage area; however, as soon as the occupant puts the vehicle on the water mode the sail retracts and the wheel arms rotate inboard to reduce drag, thus enabling this vehicle to cruise on water with the same speed and elegance.

About the Designer:

Juan Pablo Bernal is Colombian Designer with a Bachelor in Transportation Design from Instituto Europeo di Design (2003-2006) and a MA Degree in Transportation Design from Umea institute of Design in Sweden.

Among his working experiences are internship at the GM Europe Design and at Scania, Sweden.

This is the eVaro, a hybrid three-wheeler with sports cars performance. A Canadian company has unveiled its answer to the Tesla electric sports cars. The teardrop-shaped eVaro is a hybrid three-wheeler that combines miserly fuel consumption with sports cars acceleration. The designers of the eVaro Sports Cars Electric Vehicles Concept claim it has a top speed of more than 200km/h and can travel more than 200km on electric power only.

The makers, Future Vehicle Technologies, say the car is more practical than the electric-only Tesla because it removes the “range anxiety” that comes with an all-electric car. The electric motor can be charged at home in three hours. They claim the car has three wheels instead of four to save fuel and make the car corner better.

Here are some coolest electric vehicles, designed and produced by companies of the United States, Canada and Japan. These electric cars are on display at the 2010 Electric Vehicles Trade Show in Vancouver, Canada, on Sept. 15, 2010.

The eVaro Sports Cars Electric Vehicles Concept is an extended-range electric vehicle that uses a carbon-fiber, Kevlar, and aluminum subframe. Parker claims the car has a 120-130 mile range on electric power, and a total range of 460 miles. The eVaro uses a 1.1-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine, and it has a total weight of about 2,000 pounds.

The striking eVaro is surprisingly easy to enter, with the large canopy opening wide. There is room for a set of golf clubs to the left of the driver. There is an exterior trunk to the right of the driver and behind the passenger, giving the car more functionality than it might at first appear.

The eVaro Sports Cars Electric Vehicles Concept is one of 43 finalists an entrant in the Automotive X-Prize, a US-based competition that will award $10 million in prizemoney to makers of a super fuel-efficient vehicle. To qualify, each entrant has to be able to achieve 100 miles to the gallon (2.3 litres per 100km), while providing acceptable performance.

FVT hopes to use the publicity surrounding the contest as a springboard to a initial production run of 3000 cars.

Now the creator of the European electric sports cars, the E-Wolf, did not want to lose by giving birth to an electric-powered sports cars they called the E-2. E-E2 Wolf is a German-made electric car with a design that is best for this time as an electric vehicle. But it was not just a matter of course design that looks cool but can also be invited E2 sprinted up to speed 250 km / h and only takes less than 4 seconds to achieve speeds of 000-100 km / h, fast enough for an electric car. With an electric battery backed power capable of producing 1000 NM, the wolf was able to give off electrical power at 536 hp maximum with 738 lb-ft of torque.

e-WOLF has planned its sales launch (customised limited edition) for the beginning of 2010. (from e-Wolf Press Release) “Our aim is to offer a 2-seater extreme sports car in 2011: the 2010 E-Wolf Electric Sport Cars E-2,” said Kai Schönenberg, Marketing Manager at e-WOLF GmbH. “It will achieve dynamic vehicle performance that is sure to be very impressive.” This innovative 4-wheel drive vehicle will be powered by 4 high-performance electric motors with direct coupling. “Here at e-WOLF, we can certainly envisage our e-2 participating in a 24-hour race in the next few years,” said Schönenberg. e-WOLF is being marketed worldwide, with promotions concentrating initially on the Near East and Japan. e-WOLF is in a different league - it does not compete with the big sports car manufacturers. e-WOLF targets a market segment that has been neglected until now: extreme sports cars for a particularly elite clientele. To put it plainly: it is an electric sports car with a capacity for acceleration that puts it on the edge of technical feasibility.

The weight of the car intentionally made lighter than any other sports car due to the use of carbon fiber material. Therefore, the total weight of the car approximately 900 Kg. Remarkably again, E-Wolf has a battery charging system that is super fast compared to the system plug-in electric cars other. When the switch is connected to a conventional power source, then there will be a technology that allows the battery fully charged offers a range of 300 km (186 miles) and takes just 30 minutes to charge. Top speed is set at 250 km/h (155 mph) and 0-100 km/h(0-62 mph) should come in less than 4 seconds.

2010 E-Wolf Electric Sport Cars E-2, a sales launch is set for the beginning of 2010 and production is expected to occur in 2011.
