A standout surprise from Sweden arrived at the SEMA Show when Caresto unveiled the Volvo T6 Roadster. Built specifically to impress an American audience, the car follows classic hot-rod rules—and proves Europeans can play on that turf just as well as the pioneers. Styled after 1930s American hot rods and often compared to the Chrysler Prowler, the two-seat T6 Roadster is constructed around a steel tubular frame using key components from the Volvo S80. Power comes from Volvo’s
Volkswagen Ragster (ragtop + speedster) was developed by Volkswagen as a bold reinterpretation of the Volkswagen New Beetle Convertible. The concept kept the Beetle’s recognizable shape but pushed it in a more aggressive, performance-focused direction. The Ragster’s most striking feature is its dramatically lowered roof, achieved by shortening the A-pillars and adding a U-shaped roof frame. While the silhouette still recalls the production New Beetle, nearly every exterior pa
Volkswagen EcoRacer imagines what would happen if a supercar spirit met extreme efficiency. Roughly the size of a compressed Lamborghini Gallardo, the EcoRacer uses a short 97-inch wheelbase and a lightweight carbon-fiber body to deliver performance, economy, and driving fun in one package. Power comes from a mid-mounted 1.5-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine using Volkswagen’s experimental controlled-combustion technology, blending gasoline and diesel traits. Output is
Toyota i-Unit is a single-seat personal mobility vehicle designed to move easily through crowded urban spaces.

Toyota i-Real Concept was unveiled by Toyota at the Tokyo Motor Show in 2007. It’s a three-wheeled personal mobility vehicle designed to adapt to different speeds, spaces, and user needs through a variable height and wheelbase. At low, walking speeds, the i-Real rides tall and upright on two wheels, using a gyroscope to stay balanced while the third wheel retracts. When traveling faster, the vehicle lowers its stance, extends its body, and deploys all three wheels for better
Toyota FT-SX was developed by Calty Design Research in collaboration with Toyota’s Advanced Product Strategy Group and unveiled at the North American International Auto Show. Designed for young families, the FT-SX explores a new crossover space—lower and wider than an SUV, but taller, roomier, and more versatile than a traditional sedan. The FT-SX features a bold, two-volume silhouette with four doors and no B-pillars, making entry and exit easier and opening up the cabin. In
Toyota FSC is Toyota’s take on a new crossover category that blends a sedan and a minivan. Roughly the size of a Volkswagen Passat Wagon, the FSC is designed as a four-seat vehicle with a spacious, lounge-style cabin, but it can quickly expand to carry up to six passengers thanks to a clever, power-operated, three-stage foldaway third row. The layout sets the FSC apart. Unlike typical crossovers, the rear hatch is split: the upper section opens like a wagon, while the lower s
Toyota Fine-X is a compact four-seat minivan concept and part of Toyota’s “Fine” family of fuel-cell show cars. Despite its small footprint—roughly the size of a Scion xA—the Fine-X delivers interior space comparable to a Toyota Camry, thanks to a flat floor and clever packaging. The Fine-X uses a compact hydrogen fuel-cell hybrid system mounted under the floor, with four electric motors built directly into the wheel hubs. Each wheel can steer independently—up to 90 degrees—g

The design previews Toyota’s sleek “one motion form,” highlighted by a Shinkansen-inspired nose and narrow, wind-swept headlights. Despite seating seven passe

Its wheels are pushed far toward the corners, allowing the compact body to comfortably seat four passengers. The interio
