This concept e-car was inspired by Pixar films. The Nimbus E-Car is a mini-bus boasting a plethora of technological features while comfortably fitting five passengers and reducing your carbon footprint. Created and conceived by artist and designer Eduardo Galvani, the electronic vehicle will definitely have other drivers doing a double take as you drive past.
The futuristic yet cartoonish concept e-car has a mini fridge, WiFi and USB charging ports. This is all in addition to a built-in tablet that controls the air conditioning, sound system and other information about the car. The vehicle also has a smaller electric engine (130 KW or 180 hp), rooftop solar cells and energy recovering brakes to cut down on carbon emissions. It appears to have a variety of uses, from camping to city driving.
