this thing is material wrapped, and has motorised profiles under the material to let it change shape, open it's eye's etc.
looks pretty wacky, but would be cool if cars end up like that in the future.

sorry if re-post.

It's not the outer shell that'll save you in a crash. Watch the vid. He explaines it all.

Obviously this way of making cars will never make it in to production, but as a concept... I simply love it!

Have you never noticed that the outer bodyshell of a car isn't really strong enough to withstand an impact?
