Like all crotch rockets, or [racing bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c6), the goal behind the design of the Snowmobile is, of course, speed. The [aerodynamic body](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ethunder) looks a little bit like a metallic green (or grey) alien or giant sperm but those suckers do move quickly. The Snowmobile by Evangelos Gicas relies on body posture and balance to control the bike’s direction and to decrease drag. Since the Snowmobile is a concept only time with tell if British designer, Gicas is on the right track with his design. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 58% | Activity: 50% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Concept Snow Bikes:** Designing snow bikes that prioritize speed and aerodynamics can disrupt the snowmobiling industry. - **Aerodynamic Design:** Developing aerodynamic body designs for vehicles can disrupt various industries such as automotive and transportation. - **Innovative Control Systems:** Creating control systems that rely on body posture and balance can disrupt the design and functionality of various vehicles. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Snowmobiling:** The snowmobiling industry can be disrupted by the introduction of concept snow bikes that prioritize speed and performance. - **Automotive:** The automotive industry can be disrupted with the development and implementation of aerodynamic body designs for vehicles. - **Transportation:** The transportation industry can be disrupted by the introduction of vehicles with innovative control systems that rely on body posture and balance. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hybrid Design Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spirit-electric-motorcycle.md) - [Canadian Standing Snowmobiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/widescape.md) - [Cantilevered Motorcycle Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-g7-scrambler.md) - [High-Performance Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huge-moto-srx-concept-motorcycle.md) - [Rectangular Cockpit Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tricycle-scooter-design.md) - [Snow-Faring Mountain Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motorized-mountain-bike.md) - [Shapeshifting Superbike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hypercycle.md) - [Angular Electric Motorbike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polestar-cp1-concept.md) - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Superbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/akiraducati-superbike.md)
