Actually, we already saw some of the exotic cars, hybrid cars, supercars, and other vehicle engineered for uniqueness, power, and stylish look. However, have you ever wander how the cars will look to the near future? If we are already amazed with the designs and power of the cars in the present, what else the future cars can do to us? Let us use our imagination upon the exotic future cars that are already under production or still in plan for production, or have the possibility to run on the road. Here are some of the exotic cars of the future:

BMW GINA Light Visionary Model

Chris Bangle, BMW's design chief, is hoping that the car will be a showcase of what could be possible in 10 years' time, wherein at the touch of a button, drivers could choose a shape for their vehicle. In addition, the GINA Light Visionary Model shows features like a virtually seamless outer skin composed of a textile fabric that stretches across a moveable substructure. If and when functions are actually required, it is the only time that they are offered. The interesting thing in this car is that it looks very cool!

Super Tipper Truck Concept



This is an amazing truck design! The Super Tipper Truck Concept looks like a future truck in other planet that is inspired by the movement of quadruped animals. This concept truck was created by the Munich-based truck maker F.X. Meiller that has seen the future of construction hauling, and it is a sleek all-wheel drive tipper that can on all four directions. Haishan Deng, A Chinese transportation designer, made a series of concept drawings portraying what Meiller's vision about the new super tipper truck in action that won him a 2007 red dot award. Deng says the truck's six engines and battery system will be the priciest parts, although Meiller is not yet saying anything about the plan of building the tipper and how much will it cost.
