Volkswagen i-car concept is high on imagination


The Volkswagen i-car concept is a design entry that studies what the future of Volkswagen may look like. Integrated in the concept are designs that actually have been considered for future cars since long: AI, interactive communication with the driver and the surroundings. An interesting and unique concept, offers the driver to customize the “face” of the car, as in wallpapers on computers and emoticons.

The concept has a variable geometry, allowing it to contract when in traffic, and spreading out for greater speeds in open areas. Frontal portion of the concept has been designed for enhanced safety, but looking at the position of wheels and the cockpit, it seems the designer didn’t give any thought to lateral or back-end collisions.
