This compact car is the new 'Audi 2-seater' by Dutch industrial design and engineering student Jochem Hinloopen. Meant to be used exclusively in high-density, urban areas, the automobile has a unique caopy-style cockpit and a very smooth design.
Hinloopen designed the 'Audi 2-seater' to optimize visibility for drivers. The best thing about the concept car is that it can fit two people, but remains small enough to squeeze into small parking spots.
Implications - As consumers continue to undoubtedly follow and advocate the change for the eco movement, there has been a direct impact in the design world. Along with ergonomically sound cars, consumers appreciate commuting cars that make them feel positive about their contributes to the earth.
