Mazda KAAN - an unexpected blend between Mazda and Star Wars!

Mazda KAAN Concept is a concept car designed by Mazda as its entrant to the 2008 LA Design Challenge contest. A team of 6 designers has worked on this concept, managing to win the Futurist Design Challenge Award.
This electric car is specially designed to compete with the E1 races. In order to reach 250 mph without any harmful emissions, Mazda Kaan uses a sub-level electroconductive polymer that powers the electric cars in a modern world.
The vehicles are piloted by individual drivers but teams are made up of thirty cars, all on the track together. Using strategies similar to those in cycling peletons, the tighter the group sticks together, the more aerodynamic and powerful it becomes.
Inspiration for the KAAN comes from electric fields and textures seen in nature, particularly those in a lightning bolt. The car is uniquely designed around its powerful electric wheels while the cockpit acts as a capsule to safely house the driver, allowing for tighter peloton formations and a team victory.
By sitting inside the car, one can feel that victory is for sure. So, let's see how far this Mazda is going to take its future victory.
