CONCEPT CARS AT THE CHICAGO AUTO SHOW
Take a look around at some of the concept cars at the 2010 Chicago Auto Show, and you will feel like you're starring in the Jetsons. While the cars on display cannot fly, they definitely have a futuristic look and feel. Concept cars first appeared at auto shows in 1938 with the Buick Y-Job. A concept car is a prototype made to showcase an idea, new styling, technology and more. This year's show features 18 concept vehicles. Manufacturers took consumers' wants and needs into consideration when developing this year's concept models. The trend to provide environmentally sound vehicles has been a theme throughout these designs. Many of these vehicles are hybrids and a few are electric. Design and fashion trends are also evident in the interior design and exterior colors of the concept cars. Seats are becoming sleek, and white is being used with darker colors to create a stark contrast in the interior. You can find these concept cars on display at the 2010 Chicago Auto Show or at the Vehicles on Display section of the auto show Web site. |
