The conceptual Volvo Air 360 has been designed by Nacho Alfonso García for the 2020 Volvo Design Challenge as a transportation solution that looks to the skies for the future of transportation. The vehicle maintains a sleek design that incorporates a see-through cabin that can rotate in a 360-degree manner to provide uninterrupted views of the surrounding environment. This would provide passengers inside the drone with the feeling of flying to help them enjoy a thrilling experience every time they board.
The conceptual Volvo Air 360 maintains a fully autonomous design that is electric for an emissions-free functionality. The drone vehicle highlights shifting rotors that would rotate for seamless takeoff and landing, while also greatly accelerating the speed at which passengers can travel.
