Innovative concepts always manage to transcend all limits of conventionality to appeal to our ‘audacious’ side of nature. Well, we are lucky enough to come across Lucky Punk, a four wheeled vehicle concept that certainly falls under the innovative as well as audacious bracket. Conceived by the design squad of Lucky Team 21, the futuristic all-terrain vehicle is inspired by a myriad of influences ranging from aircrafts to bio-engineering.
The petite, aerodynamic form shrouded by a flashy ’see-through’ material, will be supported by a four-wheel system driven by electric hub motors. They in turn will be powered by an exclusive and conspicuous (in comparison to the size of the car) magnetic engine, which according to the designers will have the capability to produce 5 times more power than it consumes. The energy generated by the engine can be stored in batteries for further convenient and practical usage.
Coming to the unique and rather advanced wheel system, the tires used would be literally self growing. Constructed from a composite of bio-rubber and mushroom, the tires will ‘grow’ around their fixed central system of molds. When supplied with electricity, the augmenting process will become faster, thus helping the bio-engineered tires to reach their fullest form around the molds.
Other features like the distinct aircraft inspired fin on the back section of the vehicle will help in dissipating heat. The paint job will vary from matte (for absorbing heat) to glossy (for reflecting heat), while the body steering will be controlled by an adaptive suspension mechanism by the wheels. So all in all, the energy efficient, low emission futuristic vehicle will be perfectly suitable for an adventurous romp fueled by green technology.
