			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Epine concept car derived from a project to create a hybrid eco-friendly vehicle that is able to provide a racing track experience to its occupants while at the same time offering a new way of being in touch with the nature. The minimalist design of this car gets inspiration from racing vehicles – Formula One cars and motorcycles – and comprises a whale skeleton as a token of natural element. The major technical feature of this car is the Epine system that allows a complete seating arrangement by adopting the drive-by-wire technology to run the steering system.</p>

<p><span id="more-3839"></span><br />
The storage compartment is located in the front and the powerplant is at the rear side of the car. Michelin Tweel concept which actually is airless wheels has been used in the suspension system of this car and is housed within the wheel itself. The structure and the materials of the wheel spokes allows to compress and decompress, offering a collection of motions. The total length of the compact car is 4,260mm, width 1,882mm and height 1153mm.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Honda CB750 concept is actually a predecessor to the previous 70-80 CB and has reborn as a next generation smart bike with brilliant performance, breaking, handling and technology. This bike holds a 750cc heavy duty four cylinder engine and liquid hydrogen will be used as fuel. Its duel clutch transmission includes features like automatically controlled launch control and grip control for wet days. Honda CB750 features a full on, rear and front electro-magnetic suspension which will ensure less maintenance. An onboard computer allows the user to tune anything from the traction control to the engine. The body and the frame of this bike is a unibody construction manufactured with aluminum and carbon fiber.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/honda-cb750-motorcycle-concept1.jpg" alt="honda cb 750 motorcycle concept" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/honda-cb750-motorcycle-concept2.jpg" alt="honda cb 750 motorcycle concept" /></p>
<p><span id="more-2599"></span><br />
Igor explanations:<br />
The CB750 features a full on, front and rear electro-magnetic suspension. It&#8217;s less maintenance and can be electronically adjusted for best performance. Bikes sensors will give out a read out every 1/10 of a second and will adjust everything from suspension to the rider’s seat height giving best and safest performance you can get.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/honda-cb750-motorcycle-concept3.jpg" alt="honda cb 750 motorcycle concept" /></p>
<p>The safety, everything you would expect in a motorcycle from 2015. Electronically controlled ABS, Airbag, Traction Control and Steering Damper. The system will also feature a radar technology to sense an upcoming head-on collision and will automatically slow the bike. Of course some of these features can be electronically disabled to suit the rider.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/honda-cb750-motorcycle-concept4.jpg" alt="honda cb 750 motorcycle concept" /></p>
<p>Now the onboard computer, which can be controlled through a 5&#8243; OLED multi touch display positioned right on the fuel tank. There are 3 menus: GPS, Drive modes, diagnostics mode. GPS mode is like your standard GPS that will give you directions and etc, but it will be connected to the internet through Wi-Fi and 3G. This will enable you to find information on the go and implement it to your rout.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anders Gloslie, a Norwegian designer who is studying at IED Tornio currently in Italy, developed the FROST concept electric car.  The stylish exterior design of this extraordinary car was enthused by and developed to suit arctic climate conditions. The asymmetrical bodywork of this car was influenced by formations of ice and features plenty of ‘cracks’ which cover the lighting systems. This motivating natural inspiration source also denotes that the idea takes of various shapes seen from different angles. The FROST concept layout mixes the proportions and the 2-seat design of a racing car with the rough potential of an off-road vehicle.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/think-frost1.jpg" alt="think frost futuristic car concept" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/think-frost2.jpg" alt="think frost futuristic car concept" /></p>
<p><span id="more-1959"></span><br />
Anders says:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Since most of the worlds power supply comes form water, I wanted to use this as a concept. Th!nk is a Norwegian brand, so I also got inspiration from arctic clima. Arctic clima+water=Ice. Freezing water creates natures most powerful force. So that would be good to use for an electric car as an inspiration and concept for clean power. I wanted to create something different from all other works i have seen, mixing sports car looks with off road set up.</p>
<p>Using the non symmetric structures of ice as styling inspiration. Creating hard edgy and non symmetric surfaces. I wanted the car to look different, when its seen from  different angles. The cracks in the body, hides signal lights over each belt, as the original think cars do. The huge fans at the back, controls air onto the cockpit also, and adjust the engine and cars temperature. The information hose at the back sends data about weather,temperature and all information thats needed, viewed from inside the car, and also outside. The data information will be shown on  screens near at the fans, at the back of the car. That means you can operate the data info from the outside.</p>
<p>This 2 seater car has AWD, 4-wheel steering, independent suspension and  hydraulic wheel extenders, for maximum traction and maneuverability.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>New trend of three wheeled vehicles has come again because they are designed as a light and high performance vehicle. Higgins-Aubé Inc is a Canadian company who is very proud to create the &#8220;Energya&#8221;, a three-wheeled vehicle. Energya is like an open wheels race car with distinctive and cutting edge aggressive features. The engine is powered by a motorcycle engine having a six-speed sequential manual transmission. Its innovative half doors are very helpful to access to the cockpit while offering side-impact safety. So, anyone driving Energya is surely going to have a dynamically thrilling experience.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/energya-three-wheels-vehicle1.jpg" alt="energya three-wheeled vehicle" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/energya-three-wheels-vehicle2.jpg" alt="energya three-wheeled vehicle" /></p>
<p><span id="more-814"></span><br />
[Press Release]</p>
<p>Higgins-Aubé Inc, a young Canadian company, is proud to show early images of its latest creation, the Energya, a three-wheeled vehicle. The Energya™ three-wheeled vehicle, also now know as a motomobile, is designed as a light, high performance vehicle. Similar to a sports car where the driver and the passenger are seated side-by-side, the Energya™ motomobile has a rear engine that drives the single wheel at the back. The vehicle feels, drives and behaves mostly like an open wheels racecar. The vehicle features a distinctive, cutting-edge aggressive design that reflects its level of performance.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/energya-three-wheels-vehicle3.jpg" alt="energya three-wheeled vehicle" /></p>
<p>Mechanically, the Energya™ motomobile will be powered by a motorcycle engine having a six-speed sequential manual transmission. It will feature an aluminum frame with inboard front suspension using superposed unequal A-arms. The dampers slightly protrude through the front cowling, both as a design statement and for cooling reasons. Particular attention has been given to reduce the weight of each component in order to produce a vehicle that conveys a dynamically thrilling experience. Particular attention has been given to reduce the mass of the non-suspended components and to centralizing most of the mass closer to the vehicle center of gravity for enhancing dynamic performances. The cockpit is typical of a racecar with only the essential instruments for the road. The seats are very supportive, in pure racecar fashion. Innovatively, half-doors are provided to ease access to the cockpit while providing side-impact protection. Convenience has not been neglected with a small storage space under the front cowling.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/energya-three-wheels-vehicle4.jpg" alt="energya three-wheeled vehicle" /></p>
<p>The advantage of having only three wheels is manifold. First and foremost, a three-wheeled vehicle is considered, in many jurisdictions as a motorcycle. Since the vehicle may do without many of the mandatory systems and components required on an automobile, the motomobile may consequently be made lighter, advantageously influencing its performances. As Higgins-Aubé shares the philosophy of late Colin Chapman, the founder of Lotus Cars™, reducing weight was indeed the cornerstone that led to the choice of this type of vehicle. Furthermore, a three-wheel vehicle having two wheels at the front, contrarily to having a single wheel at the front, is dynamically stable.</p>
<p>Performance targets are set high: achieve 0-100km/h within 4 seconds and lateral acceleration in excess of 1 G. Expect an engine in the neighborhood of 200 hp and an approximate vehicle weight of 350kg. The Energya™ motomobile is aimed at providing exotic car performance at down-to-earth prices.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/energya-three-wheels-vehicle5.jpg" alt="energya three-wheeled vehicle" /></p>
<p>Styling and design were conducted per state of the art R&amp;D process. “We aimed at solving the main problems related to this compact architecture in sync with engineering. For example, ingress-egress ease and side impact protection were made possible by the use of a half door which also improves general styling by connecting the lower front cowling to the rear fairing with a continuous dynamic line” says Aubé.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/energya-three-wheels-vehicle6.jpg" alt="energya three-wheeled vehicle" /></p>
<p>Given appropriate financial backing, production units of the Energya™ motomobile could hit the market within 18 months.</p>
<p>As a future step, it is envisioned that the Energya™ motomobile will be offered as an electric vehicle. This will turn the electric-car stereotype on its head, as the same performance objectives will be maintained.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nestt aims as the best car seat in the world. The idea came from traditional car seat that feel uncomfortable when parents try to wrestle a child, the typical seat&#8217;s drab aesthetic does little to compliment a lush car interior. Deriving its primary form from an egg, the ultimate safe enclosure, nestt offers an elegant solution by combining security with ease, featuring single-handed tilt and swivel with almost no moving parts.</p>

<p> <span id="more-158"></span><br />
The seat incorporates an air suspension system, a breathable seating surface and air channels, removable cushions of memory foam that allow for a precise and comfortable fit, as well as retractable and indexed seatbelts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m a little bit confused with this motor design, where do I sit ? This renovation concept by <a href="http://www.confederate.com/confederate2/c2-links/home.html" title="Confederate Motor Company" target="_blank">Confederate Motor Company</a> uses minimal machine, using the fewest pieces, moving parts and systems to accomplish its dynamic mission. The word &#8220;Renovation&#8221; itself means rebirth, which also represent the rebirth of their headquarters company after destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. The Driving concept was the creation of a conceptually flexible foundation to allow a place for growth and further iteration;  a utilitarian modular flexible foundation.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.tuvie.com/renovatio-concept-by-confederate-motor-company"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/renovatio1.jpg" alt="renovatio project" height="241" width="443" /></a></p>

<p>Conceived by the leader of our conceptual design team, Mr. Ed Jacobs, the motorcycle is at once primitive, bohemian, and yet highly technical. Renovatio is un-compromised, light weight, possesses enormous torque, is capable of extreme performance, yet has maximum real world streetable active safety. It is graceful in motion, yet potentially brutal. It exudes inner beauty through absolute follow through of truth of concept. Renovatio has great proportions, holistic brand gestalt, is original, impactful, alluring and elegant</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Tomahawk is a Viper V-10 based motorcycle, a 500 horsepower engine with four wheels beneath it. The engine breathes through twin throttle bodies mounted right up front. The Tomahawk concept is an awesome-sounding machine. Clouds of blue smoke vied for attention with the throaty rumble of the mighty V-10, and hitting the gas visibly opened the twin throttle body blades up front where the headlight would normally be. Though deeper and more rumbling than most motorcycles, it did not seem to be louder overall &#8211; just deeper and less shrill.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/dodge-tomahawk1.jpg" alt="futuristic dodge tomahawk motorcycle" height="239" width="456" /></p>
<p>The Dodge Tomahawk can reach 60 miles an hour in about 2.5 seconds, and has a theoretical top speed of nearly 400 mph. Each pair of wheels is separated by a few inches and each wheel has an independent suspension. Bernhard said four wheels were necessary to handle the power from the engine.</p>
