Lotus redefines the city car
Well, if you want to look stupid and hope you never crash. I wonder aloud when all this micro car crap will go away, after all just about everyone laughs at the Smart For Two. Even the balding bore who is presenting it looks uninterested.
Automotive Engineer magazine asked Lotus to design a
concept to show how far city car design could go. The result shows how future vehicles could become much more tightly focused on their real purpose
Buyers are downsizing their vehicles and engines to save money and fuel. Purchases of city cars are on the rise. But how could you improve on the Smart ForTwo and Toyota iQ?
That’s the question we asked Russell Carr, head of Lotus Design – and would he also sketch his ideas for the magazine? Carr thought it would only be worthwhile with a proper technical brief.
