BMW Omega By Andrew Browder

Industrial designer Andrew Browder has proposed an urban transportation system that can be utilized on the highways as well as the waterways. Christened the Project Omega, the urban transportation system intends to transport you from point A to point B faster and more efficiently.

The vehicle, which has been designed for BMW, is powered by electric motors that have been integrated into the wheels. The wheels also harvest kinetic energy to top up the onboard battery of the car while on the move.
