Designer Edwin Conan brings us another retro inspired supercar: the Bugatti Type 57 Evoluzione concept. This amazing supercar is inspired from the original Bugatti Type 57, dating back from 1930s.

The vehicle is powered by a front mid placed, impressive 8 litre W16 engine (like the Bugatti Veyron). The Type 57 Evoluzione is also eco-friendly, since its customized engine runs on liquid hydrogen, resulting in zero CO2 emissions.

This concept car, like the original Type 57, has a stretched bonnet, smooth curves and a split line which bisects the car down the middle. This Bugatti supercar design is the revival of the classic Type 57, with a touch of modern technology.

The Audi Avatar supercar concept is the wet dream of the computer generation, a design created by Edwin Conan (Yi Yuan) and a pretty nifty electric vehicle. Supposedly, this is the supercar of the year 2032, packing a very light and aerodynamic body and being able to go from 0 to 100 km/h in only 2.9 seconds.

The maximum speed of the Audi Avatar is 360 km/h and you should also know that this futuristic road racer comes with three bucket seats. What does this concept rely on? Well, it uses a “long range supercharge-ion battery”, that drives four in-wheel electric motors.

We’re wondering if this car is able to stay on the road at its max speed and not take off, but we guess that some aerodynamic feats stop it from flying against the driver’s will.
