The above cars are great for sure – but they have nothing on this last amazing ride: an Out Run arcade that drives as you play!

Out Run

As described on the project’s website: ‘Garnet Hertz’s video game concept car combines a car-shaped arcade game cabinet with a real world electric vehicle to produce a video game system that actually drives. OutRun offers a unique mixed reality simulation as one physically drives through an 8-bit video game. The windshield of the system features custom software that transforms the real world into an 8-bit video game, enabling the user to have limitless gameplay opportunities while driving’. Visit the Concept Lab website for more info, additional photos and videos.
