GYM concept car: workout on the road

Dec 13th, 2008 | By Premnath Sah | Category: Cars & Bikes, concept cars

The GYM Concept Car is a project by Da Feng, a design student graduating from Coventry University in 2009.

The GYM Concept Car, as the name suggests, incorporates a novel idea. A mobile gym.

The GYM Concept comprises of a single-seat cockpit surrounded by a lightweight injection molded magnesium alloy chassis and built in exercise machines. Covering the chassis is a minimal amount of carbon-fibre bodywork, giving the car a purposeful appearance which was in part inspired by WW2 fighter aircraft.

Inside the GYM Concept Car is where things get interesting. Powering the car is an electric motor and battery pack. The batteries are charged either through a handy plug-in socket, or by harnessing the energy created by the driver when parked up and working out using the built in array of exercise equipment, which includes a stepping machine, rowing machine, bench press, pull up simulator and arm weights! This is not just some dated peddle kart.
