Welcome aboard the Renault Mars Explorer Ondelious Concept. With a front end that resembles a whale shark swimming in Martian waters sucking in Martian Planktons, with one single huge gullwing door opening up for the front and rear passengers. With a 6 seater layout featuring all individual seats, this concept was meant to carry passengers across long distances with ease, with a CD figure of 0.29, driven by a 7 speed dual clutch transmission with power from a Hybrid drive, this is Renault's concept of a future all terrain, luxury cruiser. The unique part with the design is the seemingly one-bodied construction of the car, giving a smooth, seamless flow overall, which could pave way for creating more aerodynamic production vehicles should this construction technique be able adapt for mass production.
Each passenger would have their very own infotainment centers, and a dashboard that's dominated by a huge keyboard and number pad (LoL), this is Renault's take on how to recreate Business Class comfort in vehicles, for a long haul journey. Check out this yet another 'See you can, Buy you can't' concept from France.
Here's the deal guys, we started off as an automotive industry magazine that talks about anything remotely associated with cars. The subprime crisis, the oil spill off the Gulf of Mexico, the Great Tohoku Earthquake are all world issues affecting the automotive industry.
Not only the face of what's happening on a global scale, we delve deep into the auto-journalism ethics, criticizing the increasingly mundane automotive advertising industry, we explained how America's dwindling confidence and rising sense of inferiority complex gave rise and ultimately fueled the media in propagating hatred towards Toyota.
In short, we're serious towards the automotive industry, our scope and depth is what makes us who we are, and we believe there are a lot more aspects towards which we can continue explore with the magazine when it comes to all things automotive. From the wider perspectives covering technological, sociological or even geopolitical, to inner workings of the trends and traits of design and advertising of cars, towards the human aspects that shapes the very cars we drive day in and out.
And this, is the reason why we decide to give the magazine a bump, a revamp into Wheels Weekly: Live Life Drive. Before that comes though, we will be launching an inaugural celebration issue where we chronicle the best of Wheels Weekly. We can't wait, we hope you too.
