Honda The Great Race 2025 at LA Auto Show Design Challenge


















Honda’s The Great Race 2025 concept was created for the 2008 LA Auto Show Design Challenge. Honda concept is designed to act as a vehicle to fulfill all the demands of a similar race in 2025. Competitors must circumnavigate the globe in 24 hours on land through the United States, by sea through Asia and by air over Europe.




















The vehicle’s sonar/echolocation sensors are able to detect changes in speed, terrain, and altitude, allowing it to switch to any configuration. With experience in automotive, marine, robotics, and jet technologies already in place, Honda envisage a future vehicle in which any one of these areas can be conquered.























The whole idea for this Honda concept revolves around the great race in 1908, when 17 men dared to take on the “toughest race ever devised.” Spanning six months, the Great Race brought these men over 22,000 miles, through three continents and around the world.
