The BMW GINA has only four panels: the two side panels, the trunk, and the bonnet. The doors on this concept car open up in a butterfly style, and the entire man-made skin is pulled over an aluminum wire structure.

One of the rarest Bugatti vehicles in existence is also one of the weirdest cars ever. The Bugatti Type 57S was designed by Jean Bugatti, and only 710 were produced between 1934 and 1940. Although the design of the Bugatti 57S is strange, its styling also allows it to be one of the prettiest cars ever manufactured.
The Bugatti Type 57S has spectacularly symmetrical flowing lines and incredibly well-thought-out proportions. This model featured a v-shaped dip at the bottom of its oval-shaped radiator and had mesh grills on either side of its engine compartment. Additionally, the Bugatti Type 57S was so low to the ground that the rear axle passed through holes located in the chassis.

The Cadillac Cyclone was an extraordinary concept car that was built in 1959 and designed by Harley Earl. Although this vehicle was strangely designed to appear as if it had rockets on either side and fins at the rear, it was still aesthetically pleasing. This vehicle was unfortunately never mass-produced, but it can be found at the GM Heritage Center.
This model was specifically engineered to serve as a “laboratory on wheels.” The team behind its production wanted to demonstrate the many designs and engineering advancements the car represented to showcase the auto industry’s future.
