Lamborghini Madura

Slavche Tanevsky, a student at the Munich University of Applied Sciences, has created this futuristic Lamborghini design concept.

Dubbed the Madura (named after an Indonesian island famous for bull races), the concept was created – in collaboration with Lamborghini and Audi designers – for Lamborghini’s Raw Materials Project.

According to Tanevsky, “The Madura is a proposal for the first hybrid Lamborghini scheduled for 2016. Doing a car more efficient and more nature-friendly, doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be exciting, good-looking and fast. (But) in my opinion this new propulsion system should be represented on the looks of the car.”

The whole design of the Madura is sleeker, more focused, and more aggressive. Up front, the Madura features slim headlights (to emphasize the cars’ width), huge air intakes, and a curvaceous hood. Out back, the front-mounted hybrid powertrain allowed Tanevsky to create a maze of intricate lines which helps to give the car a unique appearance.

Honda Skydeck Concept Van

The Skydeck concept is a six-seater hybrid that appears to have a relation to the CR-Z concept first shown off at the Tokyo Motor Show in 2007.  Unlike the CR-Z which is nothing more than a thinly veiled preview of an upcoming production model, the Honda Skydeck remains a pure design study at this point. While most automakers would provide a full list of specifications for a concept that is nothing more than a fiberglass buck, Honda isn’t bothering with even that.

The Skydeck appears to have a higher rear-end with a flatter roofline.  It also has a new front-end that eliminates the sports features seen on the CR-Z nearly two years ago.  Honda has tinted the windows green, adding other green touches to give a stereotypical, “environmentally friendly” look. The MPV comes with a center-mounted battery to give more space inside the cabin.  It has three rows of seating, with a pair of seats in each row.
