Concept Cars can have really crazy design and most of them vary in a spectrum whose one end is unrealistic future models that need no roads to move around and the other end is old ripped off car remakes that still seem to be stuck in the late 70’s. Designing a concept car is by no means easy and it seems every designer is going out of his way to give it some unique feature that helps it stand out from the crowd. The Volkswagen Rocca is another hallucination from a designer which will never come to life for sure. But its unique mix of metal with wood has really caught our eye and impressed us to an extent.

The Volkswagen Concept Car sports a wooden hood and a wooden roof that is so well matched with the metal bodywork of the car that it actually looks more classy than weird. This of course is not a new marriage of vividly different materials as the best yachts and luxury cruises in the world use the exact same combination. The long drawn out look also adds a touch of regal elegance to the design. It is almost like a stretch limo for Pinocchio!

The car’s extended design is apparently to protect the engine in case of a collision. The luggage space is actually in front of the engine ensuring that the engine sticks in the middle safely. So what happens in a rear end crash? You lose your life, that simple. But we somehow still like the design for its sheer imagination. Very charming indeed!
