Mercedes-Benz looks into the future


2050 is the new 2010 and that’s exactly when designer Felipe Palermo places his “Mercedes-Benz Arrow” concept. One of the big ideas here is that in the future, during the week, suspended rail systems will be used by the majority of the citizens of the major cities. Thus, this car must be a recreational vehicle made for use for fun on the weekends. The layout of this “Arrow” vehicle is done by TANDEM, the designer aiming to draw comparisons to other leisure vehicles such as motorcycles, jet skis, and personalized aircraft. This car works with a system of opposing magnets, MAGLEV, which allows the vehicle to take on some amazing curves. 
Design inspired by old Silver Arrows, Slr Mclaren, and the 1954 Gull-wing.
