Transparent Supercars

The Gamma Concept Car Hides Nothing

Remember how cool you thought the iMac was when you first saw it because you could see the guts? The Gamma Concept car uses that same idea with a car.

The Gamma Concept uses new polycarbonate and composites to make a see-through vehicle. All body panels are made transparent and are shaped by heating and forming. They are glued--yep, glued--to a carbon-kevlar chassis.

The Gamma Concept was created by transportation and industrial designer Niels Grubak Iversen. Not only does the Gamma look cool, the materials make it a strong, light and fuel efficient car.
