Concept Vehicle

Although best known for its bikes, Yamaha is working on a rather gorgeous-looking electric sports coupe with Caterham EVo. The concept debuted last year at the Goodwood Festival of Speed and promises 268 horses for its impressively low curb weight.

Bürstner revealed the Habiton micro-camper concept last August, and it's quickly followed up with the Habiton 2. The new concept camper loses the inflatable rooftop tent and rides as a four-sleeper family van with a light, minimized interior.
