about this car

Volvo developed for the 2010 LA Design Challenge a vehicle lighter than a Formula 1 racing car, driving without gasoline. The Volvo designers focused on minimizing weight and complexity, while maximizing driving enjoyment.

The Volvo Air Motion is designed like a clam shell and sculptured from ultra light carbon fiber.
It uses thousands fewer components than a traditional car thanks to simple compressed air motors that replace a heavy internal combustion engine. The motors cool down under load rather than heat up, and make heavy cooling systems superfluous.

The Air Motion is powered by air turbines floating 1,000ft in the air they harness the power of the wind and convert it to electricity to provide the compression. Hence, the car unites Scandinavian design and a guilt free, raw driving experience.
