The world's weirdest concept cars

BMW 328 Hommage

When car manufacturers produce concept cars, it’s a chance for them to throw off the shackles of tight budgets and demanding sales targets, and get creative. Concept cars are unveiled regularly at car shows around the world, a chance for manufacturers to flex their creative muscles. Think of a concept car show as a fashion catwalk, except with more metal, oil and rubber. Actually… probably about the same amount of rubber.

Sometimes, however, it seems that the pressure to produce exciting new cars is a bit too much for some poor engineers, who go a bit loopy during the design process.  It’s not uncommon for a manufacturer to proudly pull the covers off a gleaming new prototype and the only sounds from the crowd are some awkward coughing and the far off sound of a baby crying.

Bad news for engineers who have spent six months labouring over a car that ended up looking like a sad hippo. Great news for us, who get to laugh at them.
