# Zorb-Like Urban Trikes The Bemoove Tricycle is an Agile City Vehicle with a 360-Degree View By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-05-01 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bemoove References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2013/04/30/bubble-trike/) & [coroflot](http://www.coroflot.com/af_design/bemoove) There are certainly automobiles that have been designed with the metropolis in mind, as opposed to those that might specialize in rural transportation; the Bemoove concept car is one of the former, devised to deal with a chaotic environment. The [three-wheeled carbon fiber frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/threewheeled-cars) of this conveyance is lightweight and nimble. It's steered with a rubber and Kevlar rear wheel that rotates around two axes. High-traction tires keep the [compact car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kg-motors) on course, and capable of navigating heavy traffic and making quick turns and abrupt stops. A [transparent sphere is the driver's cabin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-iris-etrike). Its subtle soccer ball pattern distinguishes a system of inflatable pockets that keep the occupants protected from any impact. The clear material provides an unobstructed view for safer driving and a peek through the top reveals the city's spectacular highrises. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Agile Urban Vehicles:** The development of lightweight and flexible vehicles to navigate dense and busy cities. - **Transparent and Inflatable Car Designs:** The trend of vehicles with transparent cabins and inflatable safety features to minimize damage and provide a 360-degree view while driving. - **Efficient Three-wheeled Transport:** The rise of three-wheeled vehicles that offer a more eco-friendly and versatile alternative to traditional cars for urban commuting. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Automotive:** Developing new and innovative designs and technologies for urban-specific vehicles and exploring eco-friendly alternatives. - **Transportation:** Investing in new transportation solutions that address congestion and traffic in urban areas and prioritize safety, efficiency, and sustainability. - **Safety and Security:** Innovation in materials and technologies that enhance the safety and security of vehicles for drivers, passengers, and pedestrians alike in high-traffic urban areas. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Enclosed Electric Tricycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carver-electric-city-car.md) - [Three-Wheeled Electric Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veemo-velomobile.md) - [Autonomous Three-Wheeled Task Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfdriving-concept-trike.md) - [Retro-Style Electric Trikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etrike-revolution.md) - [Transparent Sphere Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sphere-vehicle.md) - [Recumbent Pedal-Assist Electric Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vemoo-recumbent-tricycle.md) - [Rectangular Cockpit Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tricycle-scooter-design.md) - [Lightweight Four-Wheeled Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/activcycle.md) - [Futuristic Electric Tricycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yamaha-tricera.md)
