The May 2017 autos trends are emblematic of the bleeding edge of the automotive industry, as the coming months represent the beginning of auto show season. As a result, aggressive and impressive vehicle concepts abound, with ideas and innovations that seem impossible today and yet could very well be commonplace in the not-so-distant future.
The Volkswagen I.D. Crozz concept is one such example. The unfortunate side-effect of the post-industrial world's reliance on automobiles is a high level of smog. The electric vehicle contains a state-of-the-art air filtration system that "promises the air quality of the Himalayas while driving through downtown Shanghai" according to Car Buzz.
The LYNK & CO 03, on the other hand, puts completely non-traditional selling points at the fore. Though swift and high performing, the biggest benefit of the connected car is that it comes with a free, unlimited Wi-Fi plan.
