c-1 electric vehicle lit motors

I’ll admit that if you live in Asia, cars aren’t very convenient, though the trend for super-minis is starting to catch on in Europe and slowly in North America. This prototype vehicle takes things a bit further by taking away a couple of wheels and using gyroscopic stabilization so that…

BRD RedShift Electric Motorcycles: Eco-Friendly and Look Good Doing It

brd_redshift_mx_motorbike

Motocross bikes are notoriously horrible for the environment, with their tiny two-stroke engines, they spew forth tons of Carbon Monoxide. And while many bikes have more environmentally-friendly four-stroke engines, they still have some emissions. But now riders have a choice to be a little more green when they head to…

Denver Zoo Has a Truck Powered by Poo

If there’s one thing that a zoo has in an abundance, it’s poop. You only have to wonder to the elephant or rhinoceros enclosures to see the mass quantities of poo zoo animals can produce. The Denver Zoo has a very cool way to deal with some of the poop…

Self-Balancing Unicycle Version 2.0 Keeps You Upright up to 12 Miles

self_balancing_unicycle_1

Self-balancing unicycles aren’t a brand new concept, but other than the Ryno motorcycle, I really haven’t seen much footage of them in action. Apparently, I even missed their appearance on Mythbusters… back in 2009, which I thought I watched religiously. While I’ve presumably had my head stuck in the sand,

City life is tough. Sure, you can walk most anywhere you want or take a cab, but having your own mode of transport gives you a bit of freedom. But cars are expensive. Bikes are good, but require a lot of energy on your part. Mopeds are an option, but…

Megacity Aviation Personal Aircraft Perfect for Flying on Pandora

Clearly, the dude that designed this flying rotorcraft has been watching some Avatar.… This helicopter style device has the duel rotors on top that are surrounded by fan-like rings that the movie’s flying machines sported.

Ferrari-Powered Four-Wheeler Straps 250HP to Your Butt

This may be the coolest four-wheeler in the history of four-wheelers. It’s Ferrari red, has a 6-speed transmission from a BMW M3, and a 250hp Ferrari 3.0L V8 engine inside the body work. It looks more like a three-wheeler, but if you look closely, you can see that the thing…
