Traditionally, an average car out of steel/aluminum (chassis/body), plastic/plastic (interior) and fabric/leather (lining). However, there are always people who are of the standard differ, and so we obtain the following non-everyday materials.
The mass-car production is the last years, more diverse in material use, with new lightweight stuff like carbon and magnesium. We see here, however, to things that still stand out, and that there are a lot of:
1. Artificial Leather (Velorex)
Old Czechoslovakian tricycle on Download-basis (motorfietsblok). Consists of a tubular frame and a carriage of leather. Might look a little creepy, but we can assure you that there is no single skinned bourgeois on the Velorex.
2. Duroplast (Trabant)
Hard plastic that in addition, with no option to recycle was made, it was the GDR-tweetaktjes made. But it was quite easy to beat.
3. Pur foam (AG Excalibur)
This car started out as a Mercedes CL500, until a Lithuanian with a lot of time and a barn full of pur foam is for it went to interfere. It was a unique creation on a 30-inch, friend.
4. Gorilla Glass (i8)
Not only your smartphone has a strong glass on board, as well as between the driver of the i8 and the motor is a picture of the thin expensive stuff.
5. Half a Brazilian slum (Geoff – Top Gear)
Leave it to the Top Gear trio to separate constructions. For their all-electric ‘Geoff’ went to the lord as corrugated iron shop in the favelas of Rio.
6. Canvas (Castagna Tender Two)
This car is of course based on the Fiat 500 Jolly. The kooky quirky classic strandautootje protects its occupants against the copper ploert through a piece of canvas. With a little imagination, you could find that the car of the Flintstones stood model for the cars.
7. Walvisklorissen (Dartz)
Thick piem0ls in your interior? Leo Yankelovich of Dartz arrange it for you, because a real rich just want to sit on leather walvistamp made. Or was it a PR-puffery, such a lap walvisleuter under your seat?
8. Bamboo (Rinspeed Bamboo)
Frank Rinderknecht love the environment, and that you see back in are very natural Rinspeed Bamboo, constructed out of..you guessed it..bamboo fibers.
9. Crocodile (3 Series, and more)
“You know what I want? A wrap of crocodile. To be on the street to riding in a car filled with girls’ Or something like that. This car may not be wrapped with authentic dead reptiles, but that does not mean that it would not be able to. The material is also good in opulent Benzen
.
10. Tight sail/Spandex (BMW Gina)
A BMW Concept in a nice tight skin. The almost erotic way in which the fabric at the hood nice and challenging open reminds us of this Japanese boobmeisje
11. Wood (Morgan, Mote, Maniwa, LV – 2 in 1)
Wood has been decades in interiors is processed, where it is an ornamental function. However, there are also manufacturers who dead tree as an integral part of their car use.
12. Hemp (Motive Kestrel/Lotus Elise)
Far out, dude.
13. Reed (again the Fiat Jolly)
A piece of canvas above the crown was still not enough, the true comfort you get on a wicker chair. Also Nigerian bosses know board with reeds and other plantenmaterialen.
14. Olijfbladeren (BMW i3)
BMW’s i3 is so environmentally conscious that the leather is colored with an extract of olijfbladeren. The ritselt so not literally in your i3, but anyway, the plant material is needed for the interior.
15. Jeans (Lapo’s Ferrari 599)
Denimfy ALL the tings! Jay Leno seems to have an interest shown for this particular interior of Italo-dandy Lapo.
16. Sharkskin (Peugeot Exalt)
No, not a real shark, of course, otherwise you have the Troika Thieme/Peta/Morrissey over the falls. Peugeot made a synthetic variant that is sharkskin you should contact. That we have to believe, because in tegenstellling to this lefgozer we have never seen a shark get petted.
17. Clay (Adobe)
Not only the carbon comes out of the oven, also this Adobe, because the Renault 5-like is made of clay. It is to be careful when you pass the kleiduivenschietbaan drive, but if it wounded, then you can always have a flower in.
18. Copper Peugeot Onyx/Bentley Hybrid Concept)
Continue brushing like, otherwise it is green.
19. Rubber pads (Citroën C4 Cactus)
The French call them Airbumps, and the funny things should be in the urban traffic, damage prevent. Not everyone expected that the concept phase would come, but fortunately, it is Citroën’s very individualistic.
20. Gold and precious stones (W Motors Lykan/the Phantom)
Nothing says ‘I am rich’ if your car with pounds of precious metal are hung. It also brings risks with it, but in any case strongly you surrounded by wealth if you gejackt is in this car.
