# Transparent Supercars The Gamma Concept Car Hides Nothing By Going Like Sixty | Published 2008-10-15 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transparent-car-gamma-concept-car-looks-like-old-imac References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2008/10/15/clear/) & [nielsgrubak](http://www.nielsgrubak.com/) Remember how cool you thought the iMac was when you first saw it because you could see the guts? The Gamma Concept car uses that same idea with a car. The Gamma Concept uses new polycarbonate and composites to make a see-through vehicle. All body panels are made transparent and are shaped by heating and forming. They are glued--yep, glued--to a carbon-kevlar chassis. The Gamma Concept was created by transportation and industrial designer Niels Grubak Iversen. Not only does the Gamma look cool, the materials make it a strong, light and fuel efficient car. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 53% | Activity: 20% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Transparent Vehicles:** Opportunity for innovative car manufacturers to design and produce see-through vehicles using new polycarbonate and composite materials. - **Visible Guts:** Opportunity to incorporate transparent design elements in various consumer products, allowing users to see the inner workings of the product. - **Lightweight and Efficient:** Opportunity for automotive engineers to explore lightweight and fuel-efficient designs using materials like carbon-kevlar and composites. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive Industry:** Opportunity for car manufacturers to incorporate transparent design elements and explore lightweight and fuel-efficient designs. - **Consumer Electronics Industry:** Opportunity for consumer electronics manufacturers to incorporate transparent design elements in their products, allowing users to see the inner workings of the devices. - **Materials Science Industry:** Opportunity for materials scientists to develop new polycarbonate and composite materials for various applications in automotive and consumer industries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Semi-Transparent Electric Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dab-1-transparent-edition.md) - [Transparent Electric Cafe Racers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crdos-ghost-concept-motorcycle.md) - [Panoramic Dragster Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gac-u.md) - [Bulletproof Transparent Glass Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuclear.md) - [Transparent Sphere Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sphere-vehicle.md) - [All-Metal Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porsche-928-e-concept.md) - [Outdoor-Focused Concept Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manifesto-concept-car.md) - [Video Game-Like Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milano-vision-gt.md) - [Luminated Transparent Custom Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volkswagen-id-3-ev.md)
