Vision of The Island

All-electric cars became attractive with Tesla. The design of a Tesla is beautiful and test-driving a Tesla is amazing. Once you get out of a Tesla, you don’t want to go back into your stinking gasoline-powered car again. Electric cars are actually giving the hope of a good future, with less dust and noise in cities.

Mercedes has created an extreme vision of an electric car: Their design study has become reality in a Maybach 6 Cabriolet, an all-electric car with a 750 horsepower electric engine. The shape is stunning.
The teaser video combines excellent product close-ups with drone shots and a cinematic music that reminds so much of the movie score of The Island by Steve Jablonsky.

The German ADAC published several high quality photos of the design study in his blog, the original article by ADAC can be found here.

The interior, with blue fibre pipes, reminds even more of the movie The Island.
The best part is under the hood: On the first sight, the white blocks under the hood look like exchangeable battery packs – but they are not. These are custom-designed leather suitcases, umbrellas and a picnic set with plates and cutlery! It seems that Mercedes assumes that the buyer of such a luxury car is staying on camp grounds more often than in luxury hotels.
It’s even more crazy that this car can also be driven with a remote control. This guy has to be really careful. Will we soon need a special remote control car drivers license?
