dear designboom reader,

concept cars showcase innovative designs that experiment with forms, materials and technical characteristics. companies and designers seem to shift their focus on building environmentally friendly prototypes, like dacia's 'manifesto', which 'explores a connection to nature', or the ‘A4810 project’, a two-seater with a hydrogen power train that roams the alps.

with artificial intelligence entering the field, future possibilities for concept designs seem endless. take for example john mauriello, who used AI text-to-image tool DALL·E 2 to design the 'apple car', a minimalistic sports car inspired by a macbook and a magic mouse.

thanks for reading!
