# Nature-Inspired Vehicle Concepts The 'E-Jiffy' Electric Vehicle is an Efficient Way to Get Around By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2018-01-16 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ejiffy References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2018/01/15/be-there-in-an-e-jiffy/) The 'E-Jiffy' [electric vehicle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nebula-next) has been conceptually designed by Narendra Singh as a futuristic piece of transportation technology that identifies what can be done to increase the visual intrigue of the cars in our cities. Transportation is inherently shifting towards electric and autonomous solutions, which will augment the way that we can design vehicles to eliminate and add certain components. In the case of the 'E-Jiffy,' we see the addition of a [solar panel on the top](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ethunder-electric-bike), while the angular design draws inspiration from natural waves and sand dunes. The conceptual vehicle is a demure solution for [modern cities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volkswagen-numa-concept) to keep people moving, while also offering us an idea of what might be soon to come in terms of car design. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 49% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Electric and Autonomous Transportation:** As transportation continues to shift towards electric and autonomous solutions, the automotive industry can focus on designing vehicles without the constraints of traditional internal combustion engines. - **Green Energy:** With the addition of a solar panel on the top of the 'E-Jiffy' electric vehicle, there is an opportunity for companies working with green energy to capitalize on integrating solar panels into more vehicles. - **Nature-inspired Design:** The angular design of the 'E-Jiffy' electric vehicle draws inspiration from natural waves and sand dunes, creating a need for more designs that are inspired by nature. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive:** As transportation continues to shift towards electric and autonomous solutions, the automotive industry can innovate and design more visually intriguing vehicles without traditional constraints. - **Renewable Energy:** With the incorporation of solar panels into electric vehicles, the renewable energy industry has an opportunity to expand into the automotive market. - **Design:** As designers draw inspiration from nature, there is an opportunity for the design industry to create more nature-inspired designs for a variety of products including cars. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Single-Seater Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yksi-electric-vehicle.md) - [Escapism Electric Vehicle Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trekker-concept-vehicle.md) - [Biophilic Design Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/azulik-mobility.md) - [Angular Enclosed Cargo Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-cargo-bike.md) - [Streamlined Two-Seater Electric Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-electric-car-concept.md) - [Future-Facing EV Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jaguar-type-00.md) - [Electric Superhero Vehicle Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/p64-lancehead.md) - [Transparent Self-Driving EVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unimo-electric-vehicle.md) - [Electric Hot Rod Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-hot-rod.md)
