Honda showed a surprise at the 2012 LA Auto Show.  It’s this EV-Ster Concept car.  It’s a fresh design that combines the exterior and interior design into one cohesive whole.  This concept is sporty and environmentally responsible.  Electricity powers the rear wheel, the construction relies on carbon fiber materials to minimize weight, and Honda says it’s capable of 99 miles of range per charge.

What other car does the front of this concept remind you of?

The front reminds me of the Acura NSX Concept, and that is not a bad thing at all.  The interior is definitely futuristic with a double joystick contraption in place of a standard steering wheel.  Lets hope that this fun concept reaches production in one form or another, and gets there soon!
