<div id="urb-ads-toc-box" class="post-ads-toc-box urb-ads-toc" style="display:none;"></div><p>Combining architecture, advertising and technology, this car dealership lets users punch in numbers to bring&nbsp;their vehicle of choice down a 15-story showroom looming above in full view. The tall lit-up facade of Autobahn Motors acts as a billboard and show space, letting fans scope out a Lamborghini from a distance then take it out for a test drive on the streets below.</p>
<p><a href="#" data-featherlight="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/car-tower-facade-960x630.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-wide644 wp-image-104387" src="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/car-tower-facade-644x423.jpg" alt="" width="644" height="423"></a></p>
<p>The design responds in part to the lack of surface real estate in this space-crunched island city-state of Singapore, but it also serves as great marketing for the business. While not the first such automobile-vending tower in the world, it is the largest, and it works quickly: a user-selected vehicle can be brought down in just two minutes from the floors far above. Given land scarcity in cities, this unusual-looking typology makes a lot of sense, and could start to spring up in other places as well.</p>
<p><a href="#" data-featherlight="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/carvana-960x640.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-wide644 wp-image-104386" src="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/carvana-644x429.jpg" alt="" width="644" height="429"></a></p>
<p>Meanwhile, for those in the United States: Carvana&nbsp;has smaller versions located in Austin, Texas and Nashville, Tennessee. These are less a response to density issues and more driven by marketing and novelty.</p>
<p><a href="#" data-featherlight="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/tower-interior-960x640.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-wide644 wp-image-104384" src="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/tower-interior-644x429.jpg" alt="" width="644" height="429"></a></p>
<p>And while the towers aren&rsquo;t quite as tall the effect is still pretty neat &ndash; modular platforms provide vehicles on demand from an array of sports cars, hatchbacks, minivans and trucks.</p>
<p><a href="#" data-featherlight="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/coin-ope-960x640.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-wide644 wp-image-104385" src="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/coin-ope-644x430.jpg" alt="" width="644" height="430"></a></p>
<p>As a bonus for fans of quirky interactivity: their system operates even&nbsp;more like a vending machine &ndash; users are given a giant coin to insert, which lets them bring down the vehicle of their choice from the display racks above.</p>
