Or the iRobot car - although the Audi looks more likely to show up on the road than this thing.

look at those shopping cart wheels attached to the bottom of the chassis on the merc.

but it has a cool design, i say the more the merrier, if they FINALLY start making these futuristic looking cars (because I think they can really attract too much interest to the eco theme with other methods than design) - then I'm all for it!

To be honest, it looks cool, but it's still a piece of plastic, and a flight of fantasy. Truth is that BMW is way ahead of the competition in this matters!

It's probably no even a tyre. Looks like some metallic rolling gizmo that probably saps power from the road. when the entire roadway system are made of carbon nanotubes and conducts electricity.

Personally... I would have liked MB to come up with someone a little closer to reality. But then again, it is a "design study" such a long way to go though!

agreed. key words are "design study". no engine, drivetrain, wheels, interior, etc. not a concept car either. would be interesting to see if they further this study into an actual concept.
