Can you imagine completely modifying a car that is already worth a heck of alot of money to begin with? Can you imagine modifying every single panel of a car, and completely stripping out the guts of this cool car and turning it into a car of the future.
Its pretty cool to see a massive luxury car maker get serious about the environment. This young team chosen by Bentley have built a concept electric car. Its mainly being used for racing at the moment, obviously with no real plans yet to move it into full scale production - it doesn’t really look like your typical Bentley.
What is pretty cool about this electric car is its specs. The car uses carbon fibre as its main chassis material, as it is both light and strong this will help to keep the car competitive in its racing. An interesting side point was that its budget was initially 5000 pounds, but it ballooned to an enormous 80,000!
Electric Car Specs can be found on the Bentley site.
How cool would it be to be part of this design team! Our Yeah its Pretty Cool designer would’ve loved the oppotunity to be a part of this project. We think its a testiment to true design by building a cool car that is actually beneficial to the environment. That is what makes this design so cool.
At Yeah its Pretty Cool, we know this has been out for a while, but its worth noting how something so plain and normal (eg. the regular smart car) which was never meant to be a performance machine - can be flipped by some pretty cool people, into something that is pretty awesome!
The link below is just for one of the many of these kind of cars that are cruising around. I’m sure there are hundreds of pretty cool smart modified cars buring up the place, so feel free to comment on if you have seen others or not.
Here is one pretty cool youtube video as well that shows you how much fun you can have in one of these pretty cool little pocket rockets. I want one! PS. Sorry about the low quality of the video.
