Lexus imagines lunar vehicles

Maybe one day man will settle on the Moon for several years. In these conditions, it will take a vehicle to get around, and if possible, something other than an uncomfortable or very designer lunar jeep.

Lexus designers have had fun imagining very futuristic lunar vehicles, which you could easily see in science fiction movies. For the fifteenth edition of Document Journal, a publication specializing in art and fashion, the automaker, Toyota’s high-end branch, has been selected to give its vision of luxurious driving on the Moon.

ED2, the European design studio shared by Toyota and Lexus, was responsible for drawing seven concepts: spaceship at the Star trek, retro-futuristic motorbike, six-wheeler for the transport of several explorers, buggy to spin at high speed on the pebbles of our satellite, bubble at Jurassic World

Nothing says that these concepts are very useful on the Moon, or even that it is technically possible to build them. The magazine selected the Zero Gravity, the Z-shaped “motorcycle” capable of spinning up to 500 km / h thanks to its magnetic suspension technology. The studio drew its inspiration from the design of the LF-30, the electric concept car presented last October.

These lunar concepts are only there to make you dream, they also constituted a recreation for the designers of ED2 who were then at work on the LF-30.
