Rinspeed Bamboo Concept
Swiss company Rinspeed is introducing the Bamboo concept, an open top vehicle that features simple lines and offers an eco-conscious motoring alternative. It will debut at next year’s Geneva Auto Show. Typically, Rinspeed’s concept cars are given names that are related to certain assets. And this creation is no different. In fact, many of its interior components are made from bamboo fibers. This four-seater is terrific for getting a free-air ride.
Rinspeed claims that this creation is inspired by the free spirit of the 70s’. According to the press release, the open-top vehicle “awakens the longing for sun, summer, for lightness and easiness, the desire to be at the beach.” It also asserted that the vehicle reminds people of the south of France and St. Tropez as well as the combined images of Brigitte Bardot, Gunther Sachs, and Tahiti beach.
This vehicle uses electric propulsion and it also features an on-board foldable two-wheeler. If you prefer simplicity over superfluous matters such as chrome and horsepower, then this is for you. The press release sums it up nicely: “Nomen est omen. Simply bamboo.”
