A man might not be a camel, but BMW's X5 Vision EfficientDynamics hybrid (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/geneva-08-preview-bmw-twin-turbo-diesel-hybrid-x5/) is. The vehicle, with its twin-turbo 4-cylinder diesel engine mated to a li-ion battery pack that doesn't need to be refueled until after the Apocalypse. by then, fuel will probably be the last of your worries. Special aero rims, a solar roof panel to heat up engine fluids before you start the vehicle, an 8-speed transmission, and X5 room and ride only make it all the sweeter. Check out the hi-res gallery of shots below to get as close as we did to it.
