The concept car utilizes technology that hasn't yet been realized as well as Nike technology that exists in their products such as Nike Shox Technology for the Seat Suspension. The Nike ONE features Head-Up Displays as one of the visual communication technologies on board. The car is controlled by Non-Invasive Bioports on the drivers hands and is transceived in the vehicles CPU. Nike says that 'It contributes to the overall feeling of connectivity'. Their new EMC2 vehicle—the Nike ONE, uses the next generation of the E-Suit combined with heel mounted Microcaps and internal Microbatts to power its HEP drive (Human Energy Potential) with speeds up to 230 MPH. Because the vehicle is powered solely by an individual’s personal energy reserves, transferred to the Microbatts from prior training sessions, combined with their ability to create energy on-the-fly, a new breed of athlete has arisen. Intense mental focus, combined with the need for tremendous physical stamina and a unique blend of fast/slow twitch muscle fibers, make those who master the Nike ONE amongst the most respected athletes on the planet. 

The Nike ONE was designed by a small team led by Phil Frank, for the GT4/Nike collaboration. Frank is also responsible for the design of the legendary Saleen S7. “The dramatic and futuristic design of the Nike ONE with its athlete focus, stretched surfaces and less-is-more philosophy is directly inspired from the principles of Nike founder Bill Bowerman,” explains Phil Frank, Principal Phil Frank Design, LLC. Drivers of the Nike ONE describe it as a cross between wearing a machine and being a machine. Control, acceleration and braking is achieved with the large muscle groups of the legs and arms, similar to working on gym training equipment vs. traditional wrist and ankle movements. 

The driver controls are centered around a gyroscopic cyber-throttle which integrates cornering, acceleration and braking in a single mental motion. The mind-machine interface uses one non-invasive bio-port at each hand to connect neurotransmitters in the brain to neuro-tranceivers in the vehicle CPU. All controls feature the latest generation Supersensortm components enabling micro-resolute command-calls for maximum efficiency in breaking, acceleration and cornering. Drivers say it helps them make tiny adjustments in speed and direction, and contributes to their overall feeling of connection, power and oneness. 

The Nike ONE uses a unique kind of energy source called the HEP Drive (Human Energy Potential), which utilzes the energy collected by the Nike Spark Suit (an item of clothing that acts as a generator for body motion) and stores it in Microbatts in the footwear of the driver. This Bio-lectriciy is then used to power the electric hub-less micromotors located in the wheels of the Nike ONE. This kind of drive is intended for use by athletes to train muscles and improve the cardiovascular system using pain-training-style methods. The Nike ONE utilizes heads-up display with race line tracking, energy reserves, etc… NikeMax Optics Smart Glass that adjusts color to conditions for optimal contrast and clarity, Hub-less MMIW micro-motor-in-wheel, carbon/titainium weave flex frame/suspension, active aero, variable profile regrind tires (motorcycle-like strait line profile and racing slick-like cornering profile) combined with active camber/caster, Nike SHOX seat suspension to name a number of the high-end innovations.
