The brainchild of 23-year-old Croatian automotive designer Mate Rimac, the Concept_One backs its sleek design with a cracking spec sheet - 1088 hp, 3,800 Nm of torque, 0-62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.8 seconds, a top speed of 190 mph (305 km/h) and a 370 mile range (600 km). If those figures translate to the limited-edition production model due in 2013, Concept_One will definitely have earned its "electric supercar" tag. <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/rimac-concept-one-ev/19943/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/urbantransport/" style="float: left; ">URBAN TRANSPORT</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/ford-ebike-concept-magnetostriction-sensor/19911/">Ford tips F1 technology into elegant E-Bike concept </a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/author/paul-ridden/">Paul Ridden</a></p> <p><em>03:12 September 22, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="/web/20111006091441im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/ford-ebike-concept-magnetostriction-sensor/19911/#comments">7 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="/web/20111006091441im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/ford-ebike-concept-magnetostriction-sensor/19911/picture/143187/">6 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/ford-ebike-concept-magnetostriction-sensor/19911/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/fordebike.jpg" title="Ford has revealed an e-bike concept in Frankfurt that uses magnetostriction sensor technol..." alt="Ford has revealed an e-bike concept in Frankfurt that uses magnetostriction sensor technol..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Automotive manufacturers often use the media glare surrounding events like the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/tag/frankfurt-motor-show-2011/" target="_blank">International Motor Show in Frankfurt</a> to showcase concept vehicles never intended for production. Such models are created to highlight cutting edge design or brand new technology. This year Ford unveiled an urban mobility concept that uniquely marries Formula One sensing technology with a two-wheeled pedelec bike. The E-Bike design also sees the electric assist motor positioned at the front and cabling hidden within the graceful lines of the lightweight trapezoidal frame. <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/ford-ebike-concept-magnetostriction-sensor/19911/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/automotive/" style="float: left; ">AUTOMOTIVE</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/mute-electric-vehicle-concept/19875/">TUM's sporty MUTE electromobility vehicle concept</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/author/paul-ridden/">Paul Ridden</a></p> <p><em>14:10 September 19, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="/web/20111006091441im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/mute-electric-vehicle-concept/19875/#comments">7 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="/web/20111006091441im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/mute-electric-vehicle-concept/19875/picture/142931/">7 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/mute-electric-vehicle-concept/19875/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/tum-mute.jpg" title="The MUTE concept electric coupe includes a built-in range extender, features interesting i..." alt="The MUTE concept electric coupe includes a built-in range extender, features interesting i..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Electric vehicle concepts, prototypes and production models are everywhere at the moment. Enter into any discussion on the subject and you're likely to come across a few common threads, such as range anxiety, prohibitive cost and charging inconvenience. A collaborative project involving 200 assistants and students across 20 departments at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen (TUM) is hoping to address many of those fears with its MUTE concept - a lightweight, sporty two-seater electric coupé designed from the ground up with three main factors in mind: efficiency, low overall cost and safety. <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/mute-electric-vehicle-concept/19875/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/automotive/" style="float: left; ">AUTOMOTIVE</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/lamborghini-sesto-elemento-to-enter-production/19870/">Lamborghini Sesto Elemento to get (very) limited production run</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/author/darren-quick/">Darren Quick</a></p> <p><em>08:34 September 19, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="/web/20111006091441im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/lamborghini-sesto-elemento-to-enter-production/19870/#comments">1 Comment</a> </p> <p><img src="/web/20111006091441im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/lamborghini-sesto-elemento-to-enter-production/19870/picture/142862/">18 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/lamborghini-sesto-elemento-to-enter-production/19870/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/lamborghini-sesto-elemento.jpg" title="The carbon-fiber-heavy - or rather, light - Lamborghini Sesto Elemento" alt="The carbon-fiber-heavy - or rather, light - Lamborghini Sesto Elemento"/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>At the worldwide preview of the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/lamborghini-gallardo-5704-super-trofeo-stradale/19801/" target="_blank">Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale</a> at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, Automobili Lamborghini President and CEO Stephan Winkelmann also announced the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/lamborghini-reveals-sesto-elemento-concept/16522/" target="_blank">Lamborghini Sesto Elemento </a>(Sixth Element) will be going into production.

Although it isn't so ambitious as to attempt to predict what cars will look like in another 125 years, the German automaker has decided to look a little further afield than usual. Previous research vehicles have generally looked ahead one vehicle generation, which is roughly seven to eight years, but with a newly developed hydrogen fuel cell system, gesture controls, and range of 1,000 km (621 miles), Mercedes says the F 125! looks forward more than two generations to the year 2025 and beyond. <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/mercedes-benz-f-125-research-vehicle/19868/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/automotive/" style="float: left; ">AUTOMOTIVE</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/fiskers-new-surf-the-eco-station-wagon/19839/">Fisker's new Surf - the 'eco station wagon'</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/author/jack-martin/">Jack Martin</a></p> <p><em>18:41 September 18, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="/web/20111006091441im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/fiskers-new-surf-the-eco-station-wagon/19839/#comments">8 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="/web/20111006091441im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/fiskers-new-surf-the-eco-station-wagon/19839/picture/142615/">44 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/fiskers-new-surf-the-eco-station-wagon/19839/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/fisker-surf.jpg" title="Fisker Surf" alt="Fisker Surf"/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Shown for the first time at <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/tag/frankfurt-motor-show-2011/" target="_blank">IAA in Frankfurt</a> last week, the Fisker Surf is a luxury/sports "shooting brake" or station wagon, built on the same base as the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006091441/http://www.gizmag.com/fisker-karma-luxury-plug-in-hybrid-sports-car/8660/" target="_blank">Fisker Karma</a> (electric drive with gas-engined range extender), though the Ferrari FF look makes it a lot easier on the eye.
