When you think of minivans, you don’t often think of them being cool. More like, boxes, that lug around what was once cool, twenty years ago. A mobile container of atrophy. The devil’s pipe and smoking jacket. But Honda is looking to change all of that.
Concept cars are a great thing. They’re like giant models people build that may or may not ever happen, and are then shown off at giant conventions. Which is way cooler than the models that I built, which were also giant, and only shown off at conventions in my head. Conventions that were, surprisingly, more nerdy than Comic Con.
But if you’ve ever said to yourself, “I wish my minivan was more like a spaceship,” or “I wish my hybrid car was more like a spaceship,” or “Marty McFly was a douchebag, why didn’t he just ride in a mini-van? I want to go back in time in my minivan,” well, you’re in luck. And crazy. Simultaneously. Which is the best kind of lucky. The Skydeck is a model of a mini-van, complete with gullwing doors, sliding, military-like seating, and an engine that will not kill the environment and the trees you have planted for your children. Because it’s a hybrid car.
Also, it’s the sexiest minivan I’ve ever seen. I just want to lick it, and I think you will too.
