Genius is a modern urban folding bike, ideal for commuters who need to travel short distances of 10 to 20 minutes between underground stations, the workplace and the home. It still rolls when folded and can therefore be comfortably used even in large congested cities. The compact design of the Genius ensures unlimited mobility. It can be carried, rolled or ridden, and with its well-thought-out functional and ergonomic design and release mechanism it is easy to handle. The aerodynamic look of the Genius makes it clear that this is not a child?s bike. Its three gears provide the necessary speed, and the bike can be unfolded and refolded within three seconds thanks to a convenient kick-bar and push-down / pull-up handle system. Made of aluminium (80 per cent) and stainless steel (10 per cent) it is lightweight, stable and 90 per cent recyclable.

The BMW HP2 Megamoto is the second model in the new HP (High Performance) line and here, too, brand values have been consistently implemented. Driving performance and dynamics have been increased and the motorcycle design reduced to its essential elements. The BMW HP2 Megamoto transfers the BMW HP2 Enduro’s attributes of dynamics, lightness and technical perfection to the road. An optimized engine output, an adjustable upside-down fork and the spring strut serve its adaptation for road use, as do a suitable set of tires and cast aluminum wheels. The stylistic expression of this motorcycle is characterized by a compact form, with the emphasis on the front. Viewed from behind and from the rider?s position, its slim silhouette conveys this motorcycle’s easy mobility, as well as a touch of sensuality and driving pleasure.

Ok, now close your mouth, I know that this vehicle looks amazing, in fact you can pre-order them for only $500. Aptera, the company is going to produce this vehicle for real, so this is not just concept/design that only God knows when to be available. It looks way too cool, feel like riding a UFO or flying car. It seats 2.5 with plenty of room for luggage, and can supposedly hit 60 mph in about 10 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 95 mph.
