# Cocoon-Inspired Cars 'The Shark' by Kazim Doku Melds Motorcycle and Air Travel By Going Like Sixty | Published 2009-02-28 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocoon-concept-car-melds-motorcycle-and-air-travel References: [fubiz.net](http://www.fubiz.net/2009/02/27/audi-shark/) & [kazimdoku.blogspot](http://kazimdoku.blogspot.com/) This automobile placed second in the Desire Design Competition. I’m searching for the first place car, because it must be some invisible fourth-dimension vehicle. The 'Shark' by Kazim Doku is right out of [science fiction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electra-orbit). I’m not even sure which is the front. But I want one--or five. It looks like it’s a flier and holds two passengers. Other than that, I’m not sure of the details. Details, Schmetails! **Implications** - But by making the concept car an [Audi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-vista-roadster), the details of a vehicle like this would be incredible. Concepts like this are alluring for their design components and futuristic qualities, but I think it is pretty safe to say that it'll be many years before we see something like this on the market, if ever. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.5/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Cocoon-inspired Design:** The 'Shark' by Kazim Doku merges the aesthetics of a cocoon with automotive design, signaling an opportunity for other industries to explore similar merging designs. - **Multi-purpose Transportation:** The Shark's seamless integration of motorcycle and air travel suggests a potential opportunity for other industries to explore multidimensional transportation. - **Futuristic Concepts:** The Shark's sci-fi inspired design leaves the potential for further futuristic design development in the automotive industry. ### Who This Affects Most - **Automotive Industry:** The Shark presents an opportunity for the automotive industry to further explore and develop new and innovative designs. - **Aviation Industry:** The Shark's fusion of motorcycle and air travel creates potential innovative opportunities for the aviation industry. - **Design Industry:** The Shark's imaginative and futuristic design creates an opportunity for the design industry to pursue other designs that merge seemingly disparate objects. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Water-Ready Sports Car Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/citron-above-and-under.md) - [Turtle-Inspired Sleek Automobiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vision-imobility.md) - [Contoured Limousine-Like Supercars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saab-aerostream.md) - [Stealthy Fantasy-Themed Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/f117-4wd-covenant.md) - [Plane-Inspired Vehicle Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mercedesbenz-concept-vehicle.md) - [Road-Ready Dune Buggy Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fordzilla-hypervan.md) - [Transforming Commuter Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-vista-roadster.md) - [Lounge-Like Autonomous Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-concept-vehicle.md) - [Streamlined Digital EV Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infiniti-vision-qe-concept.md)
