20 Incredible Most Advanced Vehicles In The World

Future is in the now!

By Rakesh PatelPublished 3 years ago 8 min read

Vehicles, they're the methods that we use to get around in the world in a variety of fashions. Most of you use cars in their many forms to get to work, to get to school, to drive to a relaxing spot with friends, and more. But for those with certain jobs, trains and planes are your mode of transportation as they can take you for far distances with minimal stress. Even rides like mopeds, scooters, Segways, and more all have a purpose. But equally as important is that all of these vehicles evolve over time and get even more advanced. Here now are 20 incredible, most advanced vehicles in the world.

Volkswagen Aqua concept hover car

So, we can get the concept out of the way. Concept cars are basically whip cars - cars that you develop to see how they would look or maybe how they'd act in a certain situation. They don't always get put to the production line, and as a result, they have some of the most unique looks and abilities out there. Such as with the Volkswagen Aqua concept hover car. This ride would be first debuted over 10 years ago by a Chinese graduate. The Volkswagen Aqua concept hover car was built with a very specific purpose: to help people travel across the varied terrain of China. Which honestly goes to show you how varied it is if they feel that they need a hover car to get over it all. And if you don't know, the country's geography consists of expansive deserts, mountain ranges, subtropical areas, and bodies of water on top of all the cities that they have. So, a standard vehicle wouldn't get the job done if it had to go over or even through them in one shot.

In the concept art, it's powered by a pair of electric motors: one for inflating the vehicle's hovercraft style skirt, and another that drives a set of high-powered propulsion fans. It even has a hydrogen fuel cell to further make things green. Its top speed was suspected to be around 62 miles per hour, slower than a highway car. But considering what this thing could have done, it's an absolutely fair trade-off. Now, you may have noticed that I said concept art before. That's because this vehicle was never made outside of a 3D concept art piece. That being said, rides like this have been made, and the technology is sound, so maybe now with electric vehicles becoming more popular, a test model might be created.

Mars Rover vehicle Navigator

Now, you think that people of Earth only want to make cars on earth? Well, that's not the case. They want to make cars for other planets as well when we eventually get there. And before you say we're pulling your leg, you need to have a look at the Mars rover vehicle navigator that NASA showed off in 2017. It was a vehicle literally designed to go off-roading on Mars as we roam about it. The Rover weighs about 5500 pounds, having six wheels designed with open structures rather than air-filled tires. This is based on the same wheel structure that the actual Mars rovers have used to get across the planet.

The interior is spacious and able to hold up to four people and also has a special glove box meant to hold any samples of Martian material that's collected while out and about. The irony of it all is that while this thing looks really freaking cool and not unlike something you'd see in a science fiction film or video game, it's not actually the model that would be used on Mars.

Motoroid

Motoroid is a motorcycle designed by Yamaha to be one of the most advanced in the world. It has technologies that you never expect for a ride like this. According to its official site, the primary technologies that comprise the Motoroid are an image recognition AI system, which recognises the rider's face and gestures, and Yamaha's exclusive MC's active Mass center control system self-balancing technology. Oh, and it also comes with a haptic human machine interface, which wraps around the hips and is aimed at fostering non-verbal communication between the Rider and the Machine. That's right, they're trying to make it so that this machine will basically communicate with the driver based solely on how he moves around it. It's a bit dangerous if you ask me, but it is clever. You can't deny that.

However, if you get the wrong itch down below, well, you never know what's gonna happen, and the overall feel of the bike is intentional as well. The design team wanted it to look and feel as though it was actually a real animal. Now, make no mistake, the design team did put a lot of time and effort into making the Motoroid what it was because it was quite a process, and they even put the sketches of the bike next to animals like horses to even see if they were getting the feeling right. Given how vehicles and technologies are advancing, it's not hard to think that we're going to get AI-powered rides to help us weave in and out of traffic eventually.

Ultra Heavy Lift Amphibious Connector

While it's true that the civilian market is always going to be the biggest market for vehicle developers, the militaries of the world come in at a close second because the vehicles that they use are always in need of upgrades, replacements, and major advancements depending on the situation that they're in. Back in 2014, a Special ultra heavy lift amphibious connector would be developed for the United States Marine Corps. It was developed to be a kind of beach assault vehicle that could easily traverse the waters of any place in the world to land soldiers on the beach. The tracks, which are made of what the Marines call captured air foam blocks, extend like flippers to propel the craft through the water. When it hits the beach, the foam flattens to become like the tracks of a tank or a bulldozer only much more soft, which obviously is a crucial thing as they wouldn't want to get stuck in the sand or wet terrain that they'd have to get across before being on dry land.

But here's the twist though, the vehicle you're seeing now, well, that's just a prototype from the 2014 testing that was done in Hawaii, a test that it passed for the record. The goal though was to double the size because instead of being a troop movement craft, which the Marines have plenty of that to do the job well, they could use this craft to deploy tanks on the beaches of certain areas a lot more easily. Now, if you recall, the issues with D-Day getting the tanks from ships to the beach was a hassle and took much longer than it should have. The transport could help rectify and make Beach breaching a much more simple task. Whether it'll be used in the next military event though is up for the Marines to decide.

CARS 6x6 CBRN Reconnaissance Vehicle

This is a vehicle used by the Army and serves a very special purpose to protect those inside from chemical biological radiological and nuclear threats hence why it's the pars 6x6 cbrn reconnaissance vehicle. This vehicle featuring standoff detection capability is intended for the identification and detection of chemical warfare agents and toxic industrial materials.

Article: The Most Impressive and Futuristic Vehicles of Today

The Vision AVTR

What do you get when you mix a luxury car dealer with a world inspired by James Cameron? Well, you get the Vision AVTR, a very real concept car unveiled in January of 2020. This futuristic vehicle is meant to be both sustainable and autonomous, featuring a 110-kilowatt-hour electric motor producing 469 horsepower and a range of roughly 435 miles, putting it in the range of most Teslas in terms of range and horsepower. Tesla is the standard to this day, after all. The goal of the car is for it to be driven by the heartbeat of the driver, ensuring a symbiotic relationship that would not only require a steering wheel, hence why it is still a concept car.

Shanghai Maglev

The Shanghai Maglev is a magnetic train that can be found in China, obviously. The Shanghai Maglev train, also known as the Shanghai Trans Rapid, is operational in the city of Shanghai and helps people travel from the airport right to the heart of the city. The route is 19 miles, and because the train can go up to 267 miles per hour, that means it can complete the trip in just about eight minutes. While it is one of the older maglev trains out there, the wear and tear is so small that fixing it up is not an issue.

Sherp ATV

To some people out there, having the biggest vehicle around isn't about having the biggest chassis; it's about having the biggest, freakin' wheels possible and then showcasing them to the world. Enter the Sherp ATV. It's an all-terrain vehicle and easily overcomes boulders, fallen trees, and other obstacles with up to 70 centimetres in height. It floats perfectly, passing through swamps and deep snow without difficulty and is also able to easily get out of the water on ice. Obviously, the big wheels are a large help with that, but the body of the vehicle also helps as well. The fact that the wheels are so big that they can overcome obstacles is likely enough for people to want to get in and test it out for themselves. Big wheels, well, they just seem to speak to people.

Kawasaki Motorcycles

This might seem like an odd choice because I'm not talking about a singular motorcycle per se, but a whole brand of them. The reason for this is simple because when it comes to motorcycles, Harley Davidson might say that they're the kings in certain ways, but Kawasaki is known for making some of the best bikes around and has been proven throughout the years. Fast forward to 2022, and Kawasaki is pushing things even more forward with their modern superbikes that are meant to be even grander than anything that's come before. The supercharged Ninja H2R stands amongst the highest performance production bikes that have ever been built. With a price tag of $55,000, this tour de force bristling with fully adjustable suspension and a trellis frame is an advanced electronic rider experience. In other words, if you want one of the best high-performance cycles out there, you need to get this very expensive Kawasaki.

DS X E-Tense

Look at this concept car and say out loud what you think about it. If you think that something's off, well, you're the master of the obvious. This car is asymmetrical in its design, and that's by design. It's also both electrically driven and supposedly fully autonomous. Now, unlike other concept cars, I do need to note that at least one would be made check out the other cool things that are showing up on this list.
