Hybrid Concept Car – Peugeot Velocite

Designed by Guatemalan industrial designer Juan Carlos Noguera for the 2008 Peugeot design competition, the Peugeot Velocite is a stunning hybrid concept car.  The car features a three-wheeled chassis with a beautiful roadster design that would appeal to younger buyers.

The car is constructed using composite materials and is powered by a low-resistance electric motor, housed inside the rear wheel.  The electric motor also acts as a generator to recharge the batteries when decelerating and on downhill roads.  Not only does this help with the recharging of the batteries but it also acts as a braking system, reducing the load on the brakes, which in turn, helps the brakes last longer.

The rear of the car is designed like a motorcycle for simplicity and features a single sided swing arm and a motorcycle suspension.  The interior is also designed with simplicity in mind with a small number of buttons and knobs and a big touch screen display to keep the driver informed of what’s going on in the car.

  1. Whoever created this concept might be crazy about cars! The design is clever and extraneous! I wonder how much would be that car is. Many car lovers will surely love to own one of these, even for a big amount. They would probably take care of this for a very long time.

  3. The design looks a little bit futuristic. It has this superhero vehicle feel because of the overall design. On top of that, it’s a hybrid. This is a cool concept! Don’t you guys agree?
