TOPIC: PROTOTYPE VEHICLE DESIGN
1.0 Concept of the design
The vehicle is a prototype and merging technology combining the function of Sport
Utility Vehicle (SUV) which have the function of four-wheel drive to be driven in both
on-road and off-road environment and Multi-Purpose Vehicle (MPV) which can transport
more people than a regular SUV. The design fulfills the concept of a vehicle that can
transport more people and have power and durability to be drive in any environment.
2.0 Feasibility of the design
The vehicle is designed with the standard of SUV specification and MPV standard
size so that it can fit up to 7 people.
All materials and equipment of the vehicles are chosen based on the quality,
features and standard to make sure the combination of 2 types of car can be
achieved.
The vehicle is suitable and endurable under unstable road condition.
The engine uses latest green technology to increase efficiency.
The vehicle has been tested in several conditions before it can be released.
3.0 Supply and Demand
What customers want?
Safe
Fast
Affordable
Comfort
Attractive
How to satisfy customers’ needs and wants?
High quality materials and add-on safety features during manufacturing, do
quality control and testing car before launching.
Use light materials and design the suitable shape of the car
Do market research and select specific target market, design the car which suit
their income levels.
Design a spacious, adjustable seat and steering position for customers’
ergonomics, good heating and cooling system and select suitable materials for
interior design of the car.
Understand the design trend and the taste of the target market
4.0 Functional Specifications
The vehicle uses bigger size of tyres to fit with any environment and condition of
the road. The tyre is more durable and endurable. In addition, the wheels are
flexible to eliminate road-based damage on tyres and rims.
