Volvo Air Motion Canyon Carver

Yet another entrant to the LA Auto Show design challenge is the Volvo Air Motion Canyon Carver that is powered by air turbines harnessing power of wind and converting it to electric energy, and all this is done floating 1,000 feet high in the air. The vehicle weights less than a formula-1 racing car (made out of carbon fiber material) and to achieve this thousands of fewer components are used the credit for which goes to a powerful compressed air motor that eliminates the need for a heavy internal combustion engine. This motor cools down under intense driving load thereby shedding-off another important component that is a cooling system.

 To compress the air needed for the air tank, Air Replenishment sites are used that too are powered by air turbines. Talking about the looks Volvo Air Motion has a beautifully carved Scandinavian body from ultra light carbon fiber which looks more like a clam shell.
