12.Oct.2009 Gliding Along with the Nissan Land Glider

Nissan Land GliderGoodness gracious, this particular concept is definitely a piece of work! This is, of course, the Nissan Land Glider Concept, which was finally launched at the motor show in Tokyo, after being absent from the Frankfurt Motor Show earlier in the year.

This vehicle is extremely radical, not to mention extremely narrow — tailored to look rather like a glider, in fact.

However the design concept was also inspired by motorbikes. It has tandem architecture, as well as a structure which is rather like a cocoon.

To give you a hint of how this weird looking baby works, it can lean into corners with a maximum of seventeen inches. That is almost scary, but according to the manufacturers, the safety of this concept is second to none.
