Fed up with nonexistent parking spaces? If only we could get our hands on the keys of a BRB Evolution. The stunning concept is a hybrid car that runs both on electricity and on hydrogen. Yet its best quality is its ability to fold up to 50% of its original size.

Designed by 22-year-old Daniel Bailey, the charismatic supercar boasts a very sporty figure, with aggressive lines and a remarkable glass sky roof. The edgy two-seater was inspired by the Lamborghini Murcielago and Peugeot 908, though its sci-fi movie look and traits suggest some influences from the likes of “Transformers” and “X-Men.”

Although many supercar concepts and prototypes show off their eco-friendliness, none possess the superior parking features of the BRB Evolution; boldly addressing more needs will always give one sleek car design the edge over another.

The occupants get out of the car; the driver presses a button on his key ring and the doors lock. Then two small rollers would drop down below the rear of the vehicle these would then move forward folding the car in half on a hinge mechanism. The car folds forwards and upwards until it reaches about half its original length, it will then turn the car and it will then slide into a small parking space sideways. (jalopnik)
