These days, cars need more of everything. More side airbags, more windows and more pistons are a good start, but if we really want to enhance a car’s performance, we need to do as Covini does and add two wheels to our cars.

The Covini Six Wheeler (C6W) is a product which draws its engineering inspiration from the 1976 Tyrell P34, a car with an extra pair of tires in the front. This improves braking, grip and better absorbs frontal impact all while reducing the risk of a flat or the event of hydroplaning. It also makes roadkill even less identifiable.

Being stranded at the gym without a charger can be a problem when you’re without one of these hand-grip chargers. An ideal solution for scrawny forearms and drained iPods, the hand-grip charger makes finding AC outlets a moot task. It’s a great stress reliever, too!

Squeeze the handle and it charges the device attached to it. Sounds simple enough, right? Wrong. Have you ever used one of these hand-grips? It’s like trying to arm wrestle an ogre. Most gadget-nuts won’t have the willpower or stamina to charge their gadgets this way and will probably search for alternative eco-solutions. Oh, and check out that clock: it’s 4:20.
