R4 n

R4 n by andrea filogonio from italy

designer's own words:

The concept design take inspiration by turtle carapace and legs and the mix with the Renault 4 original project. Turtles can walk pratically everywhere because they have strong legs.
They also can retract their legs in case of danger and become smaller. Its shell is very hard and protective.
Now, make a jump and apply all that just said to the WORLDWIDE MEGALOPOLIS OF TOMORROW. Very busy, but with an ambiental awareness,luxury accustomed, socially involved and technologically advanced.Look at the turtle stripe motive made with high-powerleds. In the
night they look like diamonds,and you can adjust color and shape easily from board computer.Elegant, shiny, customizable, comfortable,
safe.
That's why I thought R4-n, a small car for all people, with four wheels drive and retractable wheels.Every wheel has its electrical
engine,linked externally to the suspension. So every engine is at the same time : engine, suspension, brake, steering. All driven by wire.
You can adjust your car height and suspension stiffness,to increase its performance. In case of small parking place, and to save important space in the city, you can draw back the four wheels to have a shorter car.
And when you want, the same sistem allows you to run light offroad increasing car height, to go to the beach for example, using 4 wheels drive. Over the roof you have an hologrma generator, so you can choose the R4 model you want and project it around your new car body to have your vintage style!
Car is completely made by recycled polymers.
If you want to save energy, you can drive with only two engines turned on. In the Megalopolis of tomorrow, you can recharge your batteries at every city street turn..isn't the truth?
