From Ecofriend:
"Designed by Ahmad Moslemi Far, the Peugeot Globule is made up of four separate parts, each with the capacity of one passenger and powered by an electric motor, and these parts are connected together to a centralized battery system. These four parts are contained in a very flexible polymer covering, which holds the parts and their connections together.
This vehicle is able to move in different arrangements. In order to go through a narrow path, it can arrange its parts as a line to become narrower. Peugeot Globule can park in a 130 cm x 130 cm space by arranging its parts on top of each other. The driver’s part is the only one in contact with the ground...This vehicle is actually similar to a living creature with the ability to change its general shape according to the environment."




It seems awesome for cramped cities like Nu Yawk and San Francisco and I see a problem with different climates messing with the car's skin and I don't understand how the driver's compartment is the only one that comes in contact with the ground, but it's cool nonetheless. I love the futuristic appeal of it as well.
Also, is it me, or does the Globule concept bear a resemblance to THE DREAM MASSAGER?
