Automotive Design

Automotive design for Peugeot. This car was developed after being given the brief to design a 3 seater electric car for city living. The design has one seat in the front and two in the back with a central sitting position. The suicide doors prevent children in the back seat from opening the doors and the central driver seat means a door never has to be opened into traffic. Reversing cameras instead of mirrors reduce the chance of damage and low cost plastic panels make for easy and affordable repairs.
