The [Yamaha](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yamaha-tricera) 06Gen is a truly innovative and unique four-wheeler concept that is designed to combine the best features of different kinds of vehicles.

What's great about this particular vehicle is that it doesn't have an overhead roof at all. While this may indeed mean that you're not completely protected from rain and other elements, it's apparent that this four-wheeler concept is designed for use in good weather, and the open concept feel is designed to appeal to those who don't want to feel cooped up in a vehicle when it's nice out.
