Eco Factor: Concept car designed to run on electricity.
We did showcase some of the most stunning concept cars that were designed for Peugeot, after the company called in entries from budding designers asking them to “Imagine the Peugeot in the Worldwide Metropolis of tomorrow”. The competition received over 2500 entries and the winning car is designed by Carlos Arturo Torres, a 27-year old designed from Columbia. Apart from an opportunity to make his dreams turn real, the winning designer gets a check for 10,000 Euros and an Xbox 360 game console.
A full-scale clay model of the Peugeot RD Concept will be presented to the Chinese public. The designer intends to power the car with electric motors. Designed for a future metropolis, the car will have a single seat and will run on three wheels. The main innovative operating feature of the Peugeot RD concept car is its ingenious system of articulation that provides irreproachable road holding allied with the ability the easily thread its way through urban traffic. This concept car combines the sensations of a 3-wheeled scooter with the driving pleasure of a saloon car, while retaining all the essential functions of both modes of transport.
