# Magnet-Powered Cars The Transport TW Generates Power From Magnetic Fields By Rose Nazarali | Published 2009-05-26 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transport-tw References: [likecool](http://likecool.com/Transport_TW--Other--Car.html) & [thedesignblog.org](http://www.thedesignblog.org/entry/transport-tw-magnet-powered-vehicle-promises-green-commutation/) The Transport TW is a car of the future. This [eco-friendly car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toyota-ftme) uses power generated from magnetic fields from electrical systems. The Transport TW has only [one giant wheel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-diwheel) and the cockpit is comprised of a [singular swivel seat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yksi-electric-vehicle) with a rear door. The Transport TW would not only be eco-friendly in the real world, but this form of transportation would also probably be very smooth with virtually no noise. **Implications** - But not only that, can you imagine riding side by side with a fellow motorist on a highway full of these things? It would totally look badass! Though car accidents involving these futuristic contraptions may look quite gruesome. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 26% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Eco-friendly Transportation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop and market eco-friendly vehicles that generate power from magnetic fields, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. - **Single-wheel Vehicles:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create and manufacture single-wheel vehicle designs for enhanced efficiency and maneuverability. - **Silent Transportation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design and produce noiseless transportation solutions that provide smoother rides and minimize noise pollution. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Automotive Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate magnetic field power generation technology into vehicles to enhance sustainability and performance. - **Green Technology Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop and invest in magnetic field power generation systems for various applications, including transportation and energy production. - **Public Transportation Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce eco-friendly single-wheel vehicles for public transportation, offering efficient and quiet options for urban mobility. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Regenerative Drive Mechanisms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mag-drive.md) - [Sustainable Transportation System Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/treo.md) - [Electric Transportation Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-transportation-concept.md) - [Single-Wheeled Modular Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-naowheel.md) - [Streamlined Two-Seater Electric Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-electric-car-concept.md) - [Two-Wheeled EV Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twowheeled-electric-car.md) - [Transparent Sphere Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sphere-vehicle.md) - [Semi-Transparent Concept Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/renault-twingo-concept.md) - [HIgh-Torque Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/verge-ts-pro.md)
