Here's one from this year's International Geneva Motor Show you may have overlooked. We first caught a whiff of EDAG's Light Car concept in the September of 2009, when the open source project was in preliminary development.

A test vehicle is hoped to be ready for next year's Geneva Motor Show. Read More
