Along with the rereleases of Shenmue I & II, Sega also showed off its own attempt at retro console loaded with classic games. While knockoff Genesis systems have been easy to find, the success of Nintendo's miniaturized NES and SNES may have push...
Drawing a fine line between being futuristic and being possible is the Genesis Electra GT Concept, and oh boy, is it beautiful!
I don’t really know where to start with admiring the Electra. Is it the transparent windshield that carries forward to the front, providing a fleeting look at the mechanics under the hood? Or the way it traverses backwards to provide a simply divine looking bubble roof? Or wait, it must be the way the headlight strips travel from the front to the side in an absolutely delightfully slick manner, looking thin enough to feel like highlights, but powerful enough to light up the road. It could also be the carbon monocoque body, and the way there’s no solid mass in the car, shown when the gate opens to reveal a grill-like structure instead of a closed, solid bulk. The grill detail even carries on within the car, complementing, and possibly even becoming the hero of the interior. Aside from everything I mentioned earlier, I could also be admiring the fact that this all-electric stallion could go from 0 to 60 in 3 seconds.
I don’t really know where to start with admiring the Electra… and when I do, I’m not sure if I can stop!

Automakers used the New York Auto Show as an opportunity to show the world that they're still all about the electrification of their fleets. From hybrids and long-range EVs to futuristic and America-centric concepts, the Big Apple was home to a...
The Essentia is what I expected all cars to look like after the year 2000. Alas, vehicles still pretty much look the same now as they did way back in the 80s. But that shouldn't stop the luxury arm of Hyundai, Genesis from putting this car in showroo...
