There is something about Tesla that inspires designers. Or maybe it is Elo Musk. He is the kind of innovator who works to solve current problems while keeping his eyes fully focused on the future. He possesses a forbidden curiosity that he keeps at bay, and one of the results is Tesla, a forerunner of the electric automotive industry, especially when it comes to innovation and groundbreaking. His designs are groundbreaking and pattern-breaking in the automotive industry, making them a major inspiration for designers around the world. The result is stunning and jaw-dropping Tesla-inspired car designs that honestly look authentic. And we have handpicked some of the best ones for you! From a self-driving Tesla HGV to a Tesla-inspired rescue pod for disaster relief, these innovative cars are sure to blow your mind!
Industrial and transport designer Jeremy Dodd takes the Tesla heavy-duty vehicle vision to the next level with the Tesla E-Rig autonomous semi-trailer. This ultra-futuristic concept from Tesla identifies the basic problem of heavy-duty vehicles having an average speed of 80 km/h and having to run for almost 9 hours a day, 5 days a week. This creates an environmental impact and a pure, useful and functional method of transporting heavy goods is the need of the hour. This autonomous trailer is meant to solve this problem further to make it highly useful. The HGV has an extendable span to suit the customer’s needs, geographical location and the quality of the cargo to be transported. The top of the driving cabin and the trailer compartment are solar powered to charge the backup battery on the go.
Clad in an all-metal finish, the bike is meant to have traveled back in time from a dystopian future. The clear geometric contours and ultimate aerodynamic build will put most other Tesla bike models to shame. It’s that sexy! The Dust Tesla’s short wheelbase defies structural stability, but hey, it’s arrived from the future, where technologies are definitely beyond our understanding. Those humble wheels and the e-bike’s swing arm evoke a sense of dynamism that’s hard to miss. The sharp lips that flow from the front of the bike to the back give a deep sense of the superhero’s favorite accomplice at first glance.
This bike from Colorspoпge is just what made my admiration rush for a quick ride to the outskirts of the city. That edgy, ultimate character and the resemblance to the Tesla Cybertruck play a role – that’s really a cool idea for a car enthusiast like me! According to Colorspoпge, the monster bike dubbed The Xeпotype is a result of his pure instinct and an expression of his subconsciousness in the rawest way possible. The only point of control is the requirement to fit the chassis and design of the Ducati 916. It has a massive rear rim and a very defined aesthetic dominated by triangular geometric shapes, both at the rear and front. In fact, it’s so sharp that you could cut paper with it.
The Navetta Volaпte, which translates to Flying Shuttle, comes in a 2+2 layout (hence the term Shuttle) and feels like a cross between the Urus and what Jamil cites as his true inspiration for the car, a lesser-known Lamborghini from 2008: the Estoqхe. Jamil clearly sees the Estoqхe as Lamborghini’s missed opportunity to build a street-legal car for the average Joe (with the right amount of money to go fast). “I think back in the time of the Estoqe, 4-door supersedans were pretty interesting and I guess they would have fit in nicely alongside the Rapide, Paпmera, and Quattroporte,” Jamil nonchalantly remarks. However, the Navetta Volaпte represents what the Estoqe would evolve into today. The designer envisions it with a plug-in hybrid powertrain, pitting it against other hybrid cars and taking aim at Tesla’s own Model S, which occupies the coveted spot among today’s supersedans.
This custom Tesla bike from San Diego-based rebuilt car designer Ash Thorp in close collaboration with Carlos “Colorspoge” is an absolute knockout. Ash calls this eye-catching wheelset “THE SOKUDO” (measurement in Japanese), and it’s part of the duo’s original MHC Collection. This is the 14th project in the collection. The Tesla-themed bike here exudes a very refined personality, expected from the custom-made extruded chassis that holds a battery and electric motor that’s mated to a compact USD fork and single swing arm. The lips and angles of this swing arm match the shape of the bike’s frame, giving it a flowing characteristic. THE SOKUDO also has Ducati DNA in part, as Ash and the color were inspired by his own custom Ducati bike to create the benchmark for this two-wheeled bike. The bike rides on large carbon fiber wheels with disc covers that match the Tesla theme.
Designer Johpry Jiag gives preference to common sense while driving a vehicle, and the 2028 Iphipiti QX90 coпcept is a testament to that vision. The design of the car is centered on improving commuting by focusing on five key elements. Dematerialization, customization as per user needs, driver and fellow driver experience, technological inspiration for better performance, and facilities that cater to individual needs, giving you the most comfortable ride possible. The interiors of this sedan have a lounge-like space with a panoramic glass roof for an utmost relaxing drive. The rear passenger seats can rotate 180 degrees for a better view or to aid in socializing. The exteriors have a futuristic feel that goes hand in hand with the sharp edges of the design and fluid aesthetics, striking a striking balance between the front and rear. It is this fusion of cutting-edge with fluidity that gives this car an evolved Cybertruck feel.
This futuristic-looking machine is a mobile medical camp capable of housing medical staff and space for patient rehabilitation in remote areas. The exterior of this module is inspired by the conceptual designs of supercars, but on a much larger scale. The entire assembly moves on tracks similar to those of a truck, allowing it to adapt to any terrain or adverse weather conditions thanks to its reinforced structure. On the other hand, what is important is comfort, spacious areas and a bright environment. There are compact sections that house the beds in the upper section, a private section in the lower part and a storage space in the central half of the module. The crew of the Tesla Rescue module has a command center to design all the strategies and action locations for the mission. It is nothing less than the setting of a science fiction movie and, with this Tesla-inspired design, it is powered by electricity through solar panels on the roof, providing extra power for long trips.
Mars rover missions have uncovered the secrets of the Red Earth, and to explore the rugged terrain of Mars, one designer has created the Moo Racer. An exploration vehicle that looks inspired by the Tesla Cybertruck, with its sharp edges and distinctive front and rear design. Of course, to tread the toughest terrain and harsh environment, in case we humans search for signs of life on yet-unexplored planets and their planets. The tires on the NASA rover, designed by product design student Robi Mazáek, will be the most important, as they need to be ready for any adventure. The airless Tweel tires developed by Micheli will be the ideal choice, as they never puncture or burst, as the tire hub is attached to the rim via flexible polyurethane spokes that also function as shock absorbers for a smooth ride.
Designed for an eventual apocalypse, the Tesla Roadster Safari looks like something out of a Doomsday movie, with the idea of surviving Armageddon in mind. It features Tesla’s all-electric powertrain and solar panels mounted on the roof and sides to ensure you don’t run out of power when you’re ambushed by zombies.
Fraz set out to design the bike by conducting extensive interviews and testimonial phases. Interactions with bike owners, students, or others who use their bikes for their daily commute led to the final design. Speaking of shaping and molding the two-wheeled bike, this part took the most effort as it was an original design job. The final design focused on a lightweight 7005 series aluminum frame and the eye-catching features of the hubless wheels. To finalize the hubless wheel design, which is functional down to the last detail, Fraçz asked his engineering and mechanical colleagues for help. In the design of the steering shaft, a gear was added to spin the wheels at the appropriate speed with the pedaling motion. This is assisted by the onboard motor for that extra boost when the throttle is pressed. The Pilot bike finally came to life after countless edits and alterations to the design. The next step was to finalize the colors, materials, and finishes.
