Concept Cars

It's not the 680-hp track hatch drivers want, but the Cupra el-Born is more the electric hatchback they need. Following up on its el-Born concept from Geneva 2019, Seat tosses the design over to Cupra, which refines it into a stunning e-hatch.

Buyers looking to slide into an Audi Q4 e-tron will have an extra question to answer: crossover or crossover-coupe? Audi follows up on the Q4 e-tron concept from Geneva 2019 in introducing a sportier profile with the Q4 Sportback e-tron concept.

We saw the renders last month, and now Hyundai has made an online debut for its rather charming Prophecy concept. Styled to echo the Art Deco era, it foresees a world where joysticks replace the steering wheel as your primary driver to car interface.

It looks fresh outta Woodstock, but this 1966 T1 Samba Van has been gutted and refreshed for the 2020s with a new chassis and a fully electric drivetrain with twice the power. Don't worry, it's still got a steering wheel like a rickety schoolbus!

British sportscar manufacturer Apex Motors has unfortunately timed the launch of its AP-0 electric sports car to coincide with the collapse of Western society and a global descent into savagery and hoarding. That doesn't mean it's a bad car, though.

BMW has today pulled back the curtain on a new concept electric vehicle, but unlike other motor show flights of fancy, the i4 electric Gran Coupe previews a production model due for release next year.

This week's Geneva Motor Show has been canceled due coronavirus concerns, but auto concepts are still being showcased, if only online. And the latest is from Hyundai, which has revealed a sporty EV where the steering wheel is replaced by joysticks.

Renault has offered its take on what personal mobility might look like from 2025 with the Morphoz, an electric crossover that can morph between city and extended travel modes, can be wirelessly charged, and is ready for ride sharing.

GFG Style has presented another electric off-road "hyper-SUV" concept intended for the recently cancelled Geneva Motor Show, featuring a 3.5-second 0-62 mph sprint time and a top speed of 124 mph "on any terrain," bless 'em.

High-end Citroen spinoff DS Automobiles has presented the concept it's taking to Geneva. The all-electric Aero Sport Lounge is a sharp-looking crossover with an arresting interior that aspires to avant-garde as much as aerodynamics.

The sporty, low-slung, all-electric Precept concept takes a decisive step away from from the toothy, repackaged Volvo styling of previous Polestar designs, looking every bit the part of a performance halo.

One of the best things about auto shows is the oddball vehicles that often come out of private collections, museums, and warehouses of the local area. In Chicago, there are a lot of goofy things to see while looking for the latest from automakers.
