# Sharply Angular Autos This Mi Otra Electric Car Concept is Sleek By Josh Triantafilou | Published 2012-03-30 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mi-otra References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/gallery/Electric-car/3508221) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/mi-otra) Behance user Mi Otra has come up with a series of illustrations depicting a concept for an [electric car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electra-orbit). Industrial design is admittedly not engineering and designing an efficient electric vehicle, which is most definitely an ambitious project; however, Mi Otra isn't looking to reinvent the wheel. The design is meant to make such a project visually appealing. In this area, Mi Otra hits it out of the park. The car has a sort of [retro-futuristic look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/favorit-ev) to it; that is, an aesthetic that was thought of as futuristic a decade or so ago. This is not to say the design is passe -- quite the opposite. There are good reasons why angular shapes, [sleek lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lyriq) and metallic textures have been associated with progress: they look cool. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 32% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Retro-futuristic Design:** Opportunities for companies to incorporate vintage design elements into modern products, making them visually appealing and unique. - **Electric Vehicles:** Opportunities to innovate and improve electric vehicle design and technology. - **Industrial Design:** Opportunities to explore and experiment with designs that push the boundaries of what is traditionally considered efficient or practical. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive:** Automakers can utilize the retro-futuristic design trend to create visually unique electric vehicles. - **Consumer Electronics:** Consumer electronics companies can incorporate retro-futuristic design elements into their products to stand out from their competitors. - **Industrial Design:** Industrial design firms can pursue innovative design projects, exploring the intersection between aesthetic and practicality in product design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Modern Electrified Retro Automobiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/two8esl.md) - [Streamlined Two-Seater Electric Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-electric-car-concept.md) - [Exquisitely Elegant Electric Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elegant-electric-car.md) - [Curvaceous Electric Concept Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curvaceous-electric-concept-cars.md) - [Sleek Sustainable EV Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/opel-experimental.md) - [Revived Brutalist Coupes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/koda-1000-mbx.md) - [80s-Inspired Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-e.md) - [Stylish Concept Electric Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/concept-cla.md) - [Electric Performance Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-vision-gt.md)
