There were several “concept” cars for display at the Tokyo Motor Show 2011.

‘Going green’ is an important topic across all large corporations. Wasting paper in offices is a big and sensitive issue for a lot of people.

This interesting design for traffic lights from Thanva Tivawong is based on LEDs, but kinda looks and feels like a Sand Clock. “LED lights trickle down to make an obvious statement, regarding the time left for the lights to change.” Smart design coupled with simplicity, makes all the difference.

And that’s how timely babies are born!“.
Once upon a time, the car you see above was only a concept. Well…it isn’t anymore. This plug-in hybrid vehicle can charge itself in just two and a half hours using a conventional power socket. Expect to see this awesome car on road in 2013. No word on pricing though.

I bet this would be a great hit if it commercialize/launches in the US. “You simply open up the top end of the coffee mixture pouch, pour the contents into water and use the same pouch as a straw for stirring & sipping the drink!”
“The Halo Intersceptor is a multi functional vehicle, based around one car that can couple with several vehicle attachments to form the basis of private air, sea and land travel.” A concept vehicle designed by Phil Pauley.
