Transportation Design Year 2
In the past few years cars have changed in design dramatically, with electrical power pushing its way into the market more and more manufacturers are designing electric vehicles for their range. On the market today there are only a hand full of cars that are aimed at transporting families, and some are not suitable for a family lifestyle due to lack of interior and luggage space. Today the typical modern family has changed dramatically over the past ten to twenty years, as games consols and personal computers take over the social side of children families are becoming more and more distant in relationships and doing less activities together. My design has taken all of these issues into mind and I have created a spacious family vehicle that allows family to socialise with each other and friends and is more of an extension to your family lifestyle than just an ordinary car as it can also sleep up to 4 people. Also the car runs on two main tracks of rubber which allows larger interior space and is unique to how the car drives. Families will benefit from my design as it allows them to come together and explore. This in turn makes it more than just a car, its an extension of family living.
