Eco Factor: Electricity powered bus generates renewable energy to fuel itself. Buses are undoubtedly one of the greenest ways to reduce your carbon footprint, not to mention the money one save by using public transport instead of your luxurious ride. Buses have come a long way since they’re only considered a feasible transport for the not-so-rich in society. Designers are working hard to modernize these huge machines to make them fit for everybody. Mohammad Ghezel is another designer who has put his skills to design next-gen buses that not only look better than most cars on the road today, but also are a much cleaner way to commute. The designer has unveiled

a stunning new concept called the Electronic Bionic Insect Bus, which according to its name has been inspired from insects. The bus is powered entirely by electricity, some of which is generated by its photovoltaic embedded roof. The eight separated wheels come with in-wheel electric motors that are fueled by a battery pack lying at an undisclosed location within the bus. The bus has two side doors that too are inspired by butterfly wings and a wicked black shine finish to make it a complete insect, a beautiful one nonetheless. Via: YankoDesign / Coroflot
