The future's answer to the iconic Volkswagen bus, the Ecco restores the pioneering spirit sans the big footprint.

The Ecco is an all-electric vehicle.

It charges easily, but also comes with PV panels and a solar sail.

These allow users to ride off into the sun without worrying about finding a charging station.

Based on the earlier VW buses, the Ecco opens up into a much more spacious and comfortable camper vehicle.

Slightly wider than the VW bus, and lower to the ground, the Ecco is impressively aerodynamic.

Albeit somewhat futuristic, the Ecco is pretty darn sleek.

The Ecco reclaims the pioneering spirit sans the emissions and sans the guilt.
