With the increasing number of vehicles in cities, parking is becoming a major problem in urban environments, knocking a blow to the auto industry. Addressing the issue, Brazilian designer Baita Bueno has designed a vertical parking system that parks your car at a 90-degree angle and just takes the place of one car to park three vehicles. Entitled “90 degrees,” the parking system apart from providing a safe parking space also harness green energy via solar panels to fuel your vehicle, making cities a better place to drive as well as live in. Featuring tire support and side clamps for a tight grip, the vertical parking system also integrates a generator and fuel plug, so your vehicle remains fueled all the time.

I like this, pretty well thought out.
However, I have to say the solar panels are really a bad afterthought. Come on, did he stick these on just because it is fashionable? It looks that way.
that is a stupid idea, people have so many junk in there car it will fly every inside de car, break window, make a mess in you car. I have tools in the trunk, your money in the cup holder, glasses, pens, kleenex box on the back seat window etc.
Not very smart idea. Even if you think you have remove all the hazardus material you will forget something under the seat and BANG you will return with a broken window.
This won’t save any space because you have to leave room for the mechanism to fold down (loading and unloading). Therefore, you can’t really put three back-to-back. What could you use the extra space for, when the mechanism is in the up position, when someone may decide to unload their car at any moment?
Furthermore, the car would have to be specifically designed for this system. Suspensions are not designed to support a car hanging vertically from the wheels. Fluid compartments are not airtight and will inevitably leak all over the place.
Nice concept!
ppl..concepts r just 2 click an idea..concept dosent mean solution...WEIRDEST IDEA OF TODAY IS D GREATEST DESIGN OF TOMMOROW...an a pessimist sees prblm in every soloution while an optimist sees solution in every prblm.....:)
