What could be common between Hyundai, Mercedes, Tata Motors, and Mahindra. Well, apart from being involved in cars, all these companies have another big aspect in common. Innovation. Each of them have taken themselves out and beyond subconsciousness, drawing up creativity normally beyond reach. They mix one thing with another, then blend with ideas, fit it with unheard of technologies, brighten it up with colors, all with normal and abnormal experiences…and out of this terrific mix of intelligence and madness, they create works of artistic, futuristic mobility.
Here are some of the results.
