CONCEPT CARS




Honda has been one of the major car manufacturers across the world and is also known for its unique concept cars. Here are a few out of this world, Honda concept cars listed for your information.

Fuya Jo was one of the concepts, which brought out some extreme reactions among auto junkies. Car pictures showed Fuya Jo to have the most distinctive and weirdest of designs. The car was imagination at its wildest. Fuya Jo was meant to tempt the party animals and was molded to appear like a DJ's mixing console and a bar combined. Backside seats looked like bar stools and the roof was high enough to let you walk around. By far the most radical concept, Fuya Jo was seen at major autos shows of 2002.

W.O.W, this unique concept car from Honda is all about dogs being able to travel together in comfort. W.O.W. means Wonderful Open-hearted Wagon. This concept had a crate for smaller dogs just behind the front seats and the third row of seats were made removable so you can put bigger dogs back there. It was displayed at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show.

Honda's concept that debuted at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show was the PUYO. PUYO's "gel body" actually is soft, which Honda claims increases safety. The PUYO glows in the dark and therefore would be hard not to notice while crossing the street at night. Inside the PUYO is an instrument panel monitor and a cloth dash that actually rises up when the vehicle is started, as well as a trick lighting system, "luminous fluid meter displays" and a joystick instead of a steering wheel.
