Nissan BladeGlider
Ignore its road-going, jet-fighter looks. The decidedly triangular Nissan BladeGlider three-seater is more eco-supercar than bullet-from-a-gun sportscar. As Satoru Tai, design director for Nissan's product design department, puts it: 'We wanted a less aggressive and more peaceful feel. This car doesn't attack anything. It's about a coasting feeling - gliding, in fact.' Despite its ultra-aero shape, scissor doors, unusual central driving position and full-electric powertrain, Nissan has strongly suggested a car quite like this concept will go on sale in a few years, with good range potential to boot. Exciting stuff.
