The Porsche 918 Spyder is a hybrid we’d all like to own ;) Powered by a 500-horsepower V8 in addition to 218 overall horsepower from the two axle-mounted electric motors. Will get you to 60mph in 3.2 seconds. Madness.

Ecological and Economical Traffic Light Concept

1 Dec

The Ecological and Economical Traffic Light Concept by Damjan Stankovic is a Red Dot Design 2009 Award winner and consists of a simple yet, potentially highly practical visualization concept for everyday traffic lights that could reduce pollution and promote safer driving.

Traffic light with a progress bar? Pretty chill.

Eko Light is specifically designed so it can be easily installed onto existing traffic light systems without much effort. It claims to bring forward following benefits:
- Less pollution, as drivers can turn their engines off and cut carbon emissions while waiting for the green light,
- Less fuel consumption, as turning off vehicle engines lowers fuel consumption in the long run,
- Less stress, since drivers know exactly how long to wait, and
- Safer driving, as all traffic participants are fully aware of how much time they have left before the light changes, reducing the chance for potential traffic accidents.

Unlike other infomercials, this one sells the products with great action, cinematography, and a dramatic driving performance—and, no stereotypical cheesy infomercial pitchman!

The video is filled with great driving stunts, surprises, explosions, and a guest appearance from DC team rider, Rob Dyrdek. Filmed at the Port of Los Angeles, expect non-stop motor sport eye-candy as Block hits the all-new course in a custom tuned, high performance, and brand-new Subaru Impreza WRX STI. Visit http://gymkhanatwo.dcshoes.com/ for more photos and info on the high-performance video and Blocks complete Teamworks Collection.
