Drawing inspiration from the James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me, Rinspeed has created a zero-emissions Lotus Elise capable of driving on land and diving under water like a submarine. Powered by rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries, the sQuba is the most baller green car we’ve seen by far. The only downside is that the top must be down while the vehicle is under water, forcing passengers to breathe through scuba masks connected to the car’s integrated compressed-air tank. Anyway you look at it though, the sQuba is an amazing engineering feat, and the car’s styling isn’t bad either. Take a look at the video to see the Rinspeed sQuba in action.

Created by Marion Hyper-Submersible Powerboat Design, the 31-foot Hyper-Sub can be deployed directly from the dock, making it the first of its kind in the small submarine class. The company’s mission with the sub is to “open the seas to industry, individuals, and the military in ways never before thought possible.” Thirty-one year in the making, the Hyper-Sub is still in the test phase but should be ready for sale in the next several years. When the company starts manufacturing the vessel, it will make four models. The starting price is expected to be around $3.5 million.
