Yes, the model was created by me. I've been sketching aerocars ever since seeing basjoos's Honda Civic, however that's the first '3D' model I've made with aerodynamics foremost in mind. I was expementing with creating a tapered rear end without it looking like it's 'sticking right out'. The end result looks reminiscent of the Jetsons automobiles and the B.A.T. car .

I'd personally would be very happy with a 30-mph maximum. That's pretty quick for a human-powered vehicle.

I don't know you guys, with all these great vehicle designs floating around, I really want to make my own now... Maybe I could get away with a wooden frame for now .
