    Wow, Technology adavances! back to the future...

    The following is from Jon RÃ¥dbrink:

    NUAERO: (pronounced “no-eroâ€) represents new aerodynamics.
    My final project at the Vehicle Design Dept. at the Royal College of Art is about creating a design that visually communicates sustainability through its form.
    “As the environmental issues do close in, the days of vroom-vroom and big engines are gonna go away.†Kevin Gaskell, CEO, EurotaxGlass’s International
    The core of concept of sustainability is efficiency. In the future we will have to have vehicles that are efficient in every way; from their efficient use of and lightness in materials, their efficient form and architecture, to their efficient use of fuel and resources.
    My Lexus Nuaero concept proposes a new design language to communicate ecological efficiency through an architecture inspired by aerodynamics. I’ve been looking at different basic principles and ideas about aerodynamic efficiency and then combined them into a unique vehicle architecture. Usually aerodynamics is a final stage in car design, so this project kind of started where most projects finish.
